Character Education
Hallsville Elementary has implemented the Core Essentials program.  Core Essentials is a character education program that provides a "value of the month" focus which encourages individual classrooms, the entire school and every family to emphasize the same aspects of each value.  This program is provided to us by Chick-Fil-A.

As part of the program each month, you will receive a table card to use with your child.  The card is made to be folded and placed in a prominent location in your home.  Many families enjoy sharing stories from the card at mealtime.  Try using story starters and activity suggestions with your children at least once a week.

The featured monthly values for this year are:

September      Initiative

October         Respect

November        Uniqueness

December        Peace

January          Orderliness

February        Kindness

March           Courage

April             Joy

May               Patience
