The time spent in school is a critical part of a child’s foundation. Naturally, as children spend so much of their day in school, it should also be a place where they are able to build a strong sense of ethics. St. Charles Borromeo is an Orlando Catholic school that believes strongly in offering an education where our students are instilled with a strong sense of ethics. We aim to cultivate students who are respectful human beings capable of being responsible and giving back to their community. Here are a few of the ways that St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School weaves ethics into our education.
Mutual Respect Between Faculty and Students
Respect is the fundamental building block for all healthy relationships. How can we do right by each other if we do not have basic respect for each other? Here at St. Charles Borromeo, we aim to cultivate mutual respect between our faculty and students. While we believe this respect is vital for a healthy learning environment, it also serves as a model for how to respect others outside of the classroom.
Treating Students as Individuals
An individual student’s needs are a priority because students learn in a variety of ways. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Our faculty at St. Charles Borromeo aim to cultivate mind and spirit because a well-rounded education does not only include knowledge. Students should also have the knowledge of how to traverse the world and make the correct decisions in their life.
Self-Awareness
In order for someone to make the right decisions, they must be aware of the consequences of their actions. Building a strong sense of responsibility in school is a critical part of building a strong sense of ethics outside of the classroom. We aim to cultivate students who are knowledgeable, responsible and aware of the impact they have on their own lives and those around them.
Faith-Based Education
One of the best ways to raise students with strong ethics is to offer them a faith-based education that fosters their relationship with Jesus Christ. Students attending St. Charles Borromeo also receive attention to their spiritual needs so that they can learn to make the right decisions later on in their lives.
Ethics are important for moving forward through life. As children become adults, they will face a variety of trials and difficult decisions. When children are given a strong ethical foundation, they are able to traverse the trials of life with confidence. St. Charles Borromeo, an Orlando Catholic school, is dedicated to giving students the building blocks they need to become responsible, respectful adults.
