Character Ed is all about connections. Enhancing Connections Kids have to
the Adults & what Kids have with Kids;
Find a person in the room and quickly tell them:• How do I (in my role, as a teacher, principal,
etc;) enhance my kids’ connection with me? • How do I enhance my kids’ connections with
each other? 3 Rounds of this, 90 seconds each.

Birmingham Schools- Very high performing…
Bingham Farms- Not the norm…• We are a Title I building. (4/14 buildings)• We have 40% non-Caucasian students. (BPS is
7%)• We do not match the district norm.
Our building is probably a lot like yours.

Comprehensive- MM along with Solve it Spot and other intentional, building-wide activities to develop character.
Intentional- Schedule is set up to not have ANY co-curricular classes at the bookends of the day for building-wide time for morning meetings.
Proactive- We looked at our data, it lead us to develop MM as a school wide tool, we dedicated PD time, and consistently revisit. It’s a non negotiable (that’s not in the
contract…).
