January's Theme is Integrity
This month the theme is “Integrity”. This means the qualities of being Honest, and Dependable, and Whole. For children, it is understood as matching what you do to what you say and to your ideas, and keeping your promises.
We will be tying in Confucius’s Golden Rule and Buddha’s Right Actions as we teach to this theme in class this month. You can connect the theme at home, read more
