Respect is a positive feeling toward others. Through the character education program at TZE, students gathered at the assembly and identified how to earn respect and be respectful of others. Alexis O’Neill’s book, The Recess Queen, shows us how even bossy kids aren’t always as tough as they try to appear. Often, they just want attention or respect, and they don’t know any other way to get it. The truth is that most people would rather be liked than be feared.

How will you show respect at TZE, at home and in your community?
