Respect, Responsibility and Trustworthiness. Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship. What do these words mean to you? When you say them out loud, are they just words? Or do they describe real character traits that determine how you approach life every day? Understanding and learning about character is one thing… living up to it day in and day out is another story. This video series asks everyone to take a good look in the mirror and consider this: what are the traits that define you as a person? Diverse groups of high school students are featured prominently in these videos. In interviews and discussions filmed on-location in schools, students share their thoughts on what it takes to be a person of character in today's society. They talk about challenges they face in real-life situations, and why it is sometimes difficult to make good choices. Educators and counselors add their views on how good character and thoughtful choices can contribute to a happier and healthier life. Each program features upbeat hosts who define key terms, raise important questions, and emphasize that we all have room for improvement when it comes to character.
