Building Character, Inspiring Leadership
At Faith Family Academy, character education is at the heart of everything we do. Through our partnership with Character Counts!, we instill values that shape students into respectful, responsible, and compassionate leaders—both in school and in life.
🌟 The Six Pillars of Character:
✔ Trustworthiness – Be honest, reliable, and courageous.
✔ Respect – Treat others with kindness and fairness.
✔ Responsibility – Own your actions and strive for excellence.
✔ Fairness – Play by the rules and treat everyone equally.
✔ Caring – Show empathy, gratitude, and compassion.
✔ Citizenship – Contribute to your community and make a difference.
Students learn and practice these values daily through curriculum, leadership training, and service projects—creating a positive school culture where kindness and integrity thrive.
At Faith Family Academy, character isn’t just taught—it’s lived.
