CHARACTER EDUCATION & POSITIVE BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTION & SUPPORTS
(PBIS)
The Character Trait of the Month for January is Respect/Tolerance!
Character Education strives to encourage positive behaviors in
students in grades K-12. It promotes traits such as responsibility,
caring, respect, honesty, fairness, trustworthiness and citizenship.
In the Cohoes City School District, students at each of the six
schools participate in Character Education to help develop these
core values.
