What sets Arborland elementary apart from other schools is its commitment to the children’s character development. Children are taught to be responsible at an early age, making them solely accountable for their assignments and behaviors. Grace and courtesy lessons are taught on a regular basis. When the students show good manners, they will be accepted better in their society.
Our students are instilled with the value of respect towards others and their property, helping the children understand the consequences of their good behaviors and inappropriate actions. The students are taught that the results of their actions are based on their own choices and not anyone else’s. When the children are met with disagreements, they are also guided as to how to resolve the conflict: to respect another’s opinion even if it differs from his own and to continue communication even if there is contradiction. Discussion between opposing parties are encouraged, enabling the children to enhance their self-control and respect for others.
As the child learns to be responsible and respectful, his self-esteem grows as well. This helps the student build better social relationships, which will in turn groom them to become good leaders in the future.
