Character Education
Mission Statement
Our character education mission statement is to develop a quality educational
environment based on positive values and to instill in students a sense of
character and ethics which will contribute to building an honorable and
productive society.
The King George County School Board has joined with
the counties of Stafford and Spotsylvania and the City of Fredericksburg in
identifying the same character value for each month of the calendar year which
is then emphasized in the guidance and educational curriculum. The values
assigned to the months are as follows:

and considering others.
