Welcome to the Galena Park ISD Character Education program! We are excited to have you here as we work together to build a school community grounded in strong character and values.
The mission of the Galena Park Independent School District is to prepare students to become productive citizens and lifelong learners. We believe that by engaging our students in exciting lessons that explore and incorporate higher-level thinking skills, we can ensure success for all. Character education is a vital component of this mission, helping students develop the values and skills they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom. Throughout the school year, we explore a different character trait each month, providing you with carefully curated resources to support your teaching. This portal is designed to make character education accessible, engaging, and practical for every classroom.
We invite you to explore each month's resources and integrate these character themes into your classroom. Whether you're looking for discussion starters, lesson strategies, or definitions to share with students, everything you need is here and ready to use.
Together, we're building a stronger, more compassionate school community!
