is like a ship without a

The Six Pillars of Character

The six pillars include:
Trustworthiness
Respect
Responsibility
Fairness
Caring
Citizenship

Pillar 1 | Trustworthiness 
This pillar is colored blue and represents the pillar of trust.
- A good example of trustworthiness is when your told to do something. Does someone trust you enough to know you'll do it?

Pillar 2| Respect
This pillar is colored yellow/gold and represents the pillar of respect.
-Treating every person fairly and equally can be a good example of respect.

Pillar 3| Responsibility
This pillar is colored green and represents the pillar of being a responsible person.
-Getting things that need to be done, done, is a good example of responsibility.

Pillar 4| Fairness
This pillar is colored orange and represents the pillar of being a fair individual to all.
-In sports fairness is essential, and always welcomed.

Pillar 5| Caring
This pillar is colored red and represents the pillar of being compassionate and caring.   
-Being a considerate human to everyone and show compassion can be a good example.

Pillar 6| Citizenship 
This pillar is colored purple and represents the pillar of good citizenship.
-Helping others in their hour of need is always a good example of good citizenship.



Reflection: I think that these pillars are essential in being a good person and contributor towards society. Not only does it do good for others, but it demonstrates who you are as a person. Without one the entire pillar chart would not function properly, therefore all pillars are as important as each other.

Student Success Statement

I would prefer to fail

Reflection: Sophocles explains that, it is more honorable to fail than to win cheating. I agree, failing with honor is better than winning with lies. You can fool everyone, but you can't fool yourself.
