Northern Academy’s
CHARACTER BUILDING
Our mission is to nurture students to become cultured individuals of exemplary moral character. To this end, we provide an education drawn from the classics and the arts, one steeped in divinely inspired traditional values of the East and West.
Research has shown that in order for education to be highly effective for students, a strong character education must be an integral part of the school curriculum.
Northern Academy’s character building based curriculum includes:
• Integration with instruction
• Instruction using classical Western and Chinese literature • Unique health curriculum that instills healthy life habits • Etiquette and Ethics courses for all grade-levels
• Community service and citizenship education
• Healthy internet use and smart device restrictions
• Integration of core values in daily life
“ I love this curriculum and find it very well done and excel- lent information
for the growing mind. I am very happy that these topics of ethics, true overall mental, physical, emotional,
and spiritual health
are being addressed. ”
