Through this process of guided discussion and personal reflection, students will reflect upon the core values of respect, responsibility, caring and citizenship as they consider how they might utilize their personal strengths and uniqueness to strengthen the circles in which they live and expand their circles by respecting the abilities, gifts and perspectives of others. The students will work together as a team to design and create a mural for the school reflecting students' personal strengths.
