Students and staff at Trout Creek School are focusing on character virtues this school year to create a "Culture of Character." Administrators and staff have chosen to focus on the virtues of compassion, honesty, integrity, tolerance, respect, responsibility, courtesy, forgiveness and patience for the 2018-2019 school year.

October's virtue was compassion, and teachers each chose a student from their classroom who exemplified compassion. The students chosen were Kamdin Hensley (K-1), Grady Dana (2-3), Georgia Schafer (4-5), and Jazmyn Hancock (6-8).

The school also held a competition to decorate each classroom's door. Mr. Morris's class won the October door competition and was rewarded with a popcorn party.

Trout Creek School will continue to focus on a different virtue each month throughout the school year.
