The school fosters character development by encouraging students to “do the right thing” for intrinsic rather than extrinsic reasons.

Schools that have embedded a culture of character have put in a range of strategies that encourage students to be honest because that is the kind of person they want to be rather than being motivated by the fear of being punished for lying, stealing, or cheating. These schools have also put in place approaches that celebrate students for being kind and caring without over-emphasizing extrinsic rewards for these positive behaviors. In addition, the staff has taken the time at the beginning of the school year to explain to all students the character-centered reasons for the expectations or rules of the school. This approach is especially pertinent when a student has made a behavioral mistake. In short, Principle 7 is about schools striving to cultivate true heart change in every student rather than settling for mere compliance.
