Leader’s Edge:   

Southeast Local Schools offers an anti-virus character education program sponsored by Ventrac.  It is held during the school day and is designed specifically for middle school students. The curriculum focuses on seven main character traits: ambition, responsibility, hard work, emotions, restraint, common sense, and generosity. This nine-week unit is designed to inform, inspire, and ignite middle school students to live a life full of ethical principles.

Positive influence begins by having good character, treating others well, working hard and having the right attitude.  These values will make you influential wherever you are and wherever you go!
