Welcome, Families!
At CharacterStrong, we believe that families are students’ first and most important teacher. Our organization works in grades PK-12 to support educators to create effective learning environments. Through things like problem-solving, goal-setting, and character development, we help set students up for life success.
How do we partner with families?
What do students and families say?
“I love learning about the character traits and what they mean - especially the songs.”

“As a parent, I love the impact CharacterStrong has on my kids. They share what they learn at school and it’s opened up some great conversations for us as a family.”
