Character Word for December
Westchester Country Day School's character word for December 2024 is SERVICE -- lending a hand to help someone else. The character word is emphasized by the color denim blue and the animal yak.
Students will be learning what it means to have SERVICE during a community meeting and classroom guidance lessons throughout the month. Parents can read the newsletter linked below or listen to the Core Essential Values podcast to learn more about how to support students in developing SERVICE at home.
Westchester follows the Core Essential Values character education program, which helps teach students to treat others right, make smart decisions, and maximize their potential through a focus on a monthly character trait. This is one of the ways WCDS emphasizes the pillar of moral excellence.
