About This Title
"Schools cannot teach character . . . School have to create an environment that models and promotes character development, and then they have to allow the children to 'catch' character from the behavior of the adults and students around them."
—From Chapter 1 by James P. Comer
Let today’s educational leaders show you how to create a safe, healthy, and successful classroom community!
Combining emotional intelligence (EQ) with academic intelligence (IQ) is the essential key to developing knowledgeable, caring, healthy, and successful students in today’s troubled world.
