 |
| Embers offers a school-wide program of character formation which centers on the development of virtues. Seven virtues are fundamental: responsibility, sound decision-making, courage, self-control, faith, hope and love. Other virtues of special relevance are friendship, cheerfulness, order, respect for freedom, industriousness, and courtesy. The virtues are taught through adult example, directed practice and explanation. |
| Parental Involvement |
| Embers believes that parents are the primary educators of their children and that parents can benefit from the support of a school to carry out this responsibility. Therefore, the school is a resource for parents to become more knowledgeable as regards their children's academic, character and faith development. At Embers, parents get to know other parents who hold the same aspirations and goals for their children. |
