Thomas Stone High School
MCCE Application
The Maryland Center for Character Education (MCCE) highlights exemplary schools in the state of Maryland who have developed, instituted and are continuing comprehensive character education initiatives in their school communities. MCCE recognizes each selected school as a Maryland Center for Character Education School of the Year.
The Maryland Center for Character Education requested nominations for MCCE’s Schools of the Year, they were looking for schools that exhibit the Character Education Partnership’s 11 Principles of Effective Character Education and their Best Practices. These could be in the form of new initiatives, additional development and expansion of current classroom practices, as well as Master Plan integration.
As a result Thomas Stone High School was nominated due to the Capturing Kids Hearts initiative within the building. View the link below to see how Thomas Stone High School is advancing character education within the Thomas Stone community.
