The staff of our continuation school was concerned about the poor decision making skills, as well as a low standard of morality on the part of our students. In addition, the English teachers felt that reading selections in the adopted literature textbook were not engaging our students. Dr. Hoedel’s Character and Leadership curriculum has helped us address both of these issues. The character topics and role models are now part of our daily conversations on campus, both inside and out of the classroom. The topics are refreshing, relevant and interesting for students and staff. This was a great fit for us!
