Citizenship & Character

Encinitas Country Day School has traditionally made the unfolding character of its students a top priority at all levels. A primary element of the school’s character education policy is the high level of supervision and guidance students receive. Teachers are charged with attending to the character education of their students. Guidance and support are available from the administration, in the school library and in the adopted character education standards and curriculum materials provided to all grades. Teachers receive in-service training to implement the various policies and use the adopted programs within their classrooms and school-wide. The ultimate goal is to work as a team, in concert with parents, to support our students in becoming the balanced individuals of “scholarship, integrity, and service” we’ve envisioned in our Expected School-wide Learning Outcomes (ESLO’s).
