Description: The brainchild of national researchers and experts, the Eleven Principles of Character Education have become the national standard. Like any set of well-intentioned standards, it takes a committed administrator and gifted staff to translate them into a process that transforms school culture, creates ethical leaders of all students, and raises academic performance. Amy Johnston tells the story of how Francis Howell Middle tackled the 11 Principles, taking them out of order, integrating them in stages, wrestling with what they looked like and sounded like in their middle school, asking students for feedback, taking risks, and building on successes.

This honest, wise, humor-filled, practical report on a journey that led the country's highest honor in character education gives others a place to start and a real handle on the process. Amy
