Blue Ridge Elementary School celebrated its fourth annual Character Education Week and first annual pep rally during the week of November 12th. It was a week to celebrate the school’s character education program and good character of the students, faculty, and staff. The character education program is based on the six pillars of character which are respect, responsibility, trustworthiness, fairness, caring, and citizenship.
Character Education Week included daily spirit themes such as crazy hair day, mismatch day, and pillar of character color day where each grade level wears a different color to represent a specific pillar of character. Students also read special character education messages each day. The week of celebration ended with a pep rally.
The pep rally included cheers and a routine from the Blue Ridge Triplet “C” Team cheerleaders, a tricycle race, a hula hoop contest, the Cupid shuffle, and a pie in the face contest. We ended the pep rally with each grade level revealing their pillar of character chant, such as “R-E-S-P-E-C-T, treat others the way that you want to be!”
Students, faculty, and staff all contributed to making Character Education Week and the first annual pep rally a huge success! We look forward to another year of good character at Blue Ridge Elementary!
