Since 2002, WiseSkills has been a CHARACTER COUNTS! Partner as together we work to help young people develop good character. While elementary schools can easily use our K-5 resources to teach the Six Pillars of Character (click here for info) we publish special CHARACTER COUNTS! editions of our middle and high school materials. These resources have the same interdisciplinaryWiseSkills content, but have been conveniently organized around the Six Pillars of Character--Trustworthiness, Respect,Responsibility,Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship.
