    Character Education and School Climate
    (2010) Thompson, Lori; Hyman, Randy; Rauschenfels, Diane
    Character Education and School Climate was a qualitative study which used the thoughts and ideas of third, fourth, and fifth graders from two rural Northwest Wisconsin elementary schools over the past five years. The students reported on their feelings regarding school, including what they liked and what they would change. Their answers to those questions were studied for common themes taught during character education lessons. Results of this study emphasize the importance of creating and maintaining a positive school climate by providing students with a direct education of character traits.
