THIS MONTH'S CHARACTER PILLAR IS - RESPONSIBILITY
These are the main ideas that apply to the pillar of Responsibility:
- Accountability: This means that you accept responsibility for the consequences of your choices. It is taking responsibility for the things you choose to do and the things you choose not to do.
- Self-control: Set realistic goals. Have a positive attitude. Act out of reason, not anger or revenge. Be self-reliant.
- Duty: Doing your duty means doing what you should do. Duties can come from rules, laws, agreements, or ethical obligations.
- Excellence: Pursuing excellence means doing your best. It means persevering and not giving up. Be prepared, organized and work hard.

Q&A WITH THE COUNSELOR
Q: My son has to spend more time studying this year. How can I make sure he studies effectively?
A: Set your son up for success by helping him find a distraction-free study spot.
Also have him come up with a study routine. For instance, he could reserve time each evening to review his textbook and notes in the days leading up to a test.
And finally, encourage him to experiment with study strategies to find what works best for him.
