High School

WiseSkills helps high schools use a common language of character by focusing on schoolwide Character Themes and creating a culture where all educators model, teach, and reinforce positive life choices. Throughout the year, each classroom teacher chooses from the hundreds of flexible lessons and activities in the Wisdom for Life Curriculum that will work best with their students, such as advisory lessons, brief discussions, multicultural quotations, across-the-curriculum activities, reproducible pages, media literacy activities, and meaningful service experiences. The High School Implementation Kt provides training videos and additional resources for effectively implementing WiseSkills schoolwide. WiseSkills can be used in conjunction with Character Counts! to teach the Six Pillars of Character.
