Character Education without Turmoil.
Huffman, Henry A.
Educational Leadership, v51 n3 p24-26 Nov 1993
A group of staff and parents in a Pennsylvania community developed a district strategic plan stressing character education. The original study group found three reasons for involving schools, including schools' historical commitment to character development, recognition of values education as an intrinsic part of teaching, and increasing crime and social disarray. Action plans are outlined. (MLH)
