"The Character Playbook program has been a wonderful resource in my classroom this year. The program offers key lessons including decision making, conflict resolution, and effective communication. It also helped to educate my students on things like digital citizenship, empathy, and how to step in and intervene when situations warrant. The students really enjoyed the interactive aspect of the program, how the content was relatable, and that it allowed students to work at their own pace.  It has opened up new opportunities for conversation on some very important topics that middle school and high school students face all the time."
