Welcome to Character Education

The District School Board of Collier County, in partnership with the home and community, has a critical role to play in helping our youth develop into responsible citizens. Character education prepares our youth to address life’s moral and ethical problems. Students develop character through interaction with family, peers, teachers, and community members.

A person of character is a good person, someone to look up to and admire, knows the difference between right and wrong and always tries to do what is right.
