Character 

For thousands of years,  men and women have realized the importance of having a good character, a good education, and a goal for our future.  At ECMS, we firmly believe that

 “Every Child Must Succeed”.  In order to succeed one needs more than an education and more than a goal.  One needs a strong positive character.  Character includes thinking, feeling, and behavior.  It is one of our goals to offer the basic principles of character to our students, by introducing them to very powerful yet simple words of character each month.  Each of these are words that can be used as a part of their life at school, home and in the community.  By incorporating these characteristic traits, we will make life better at school, at home and in the community.
