Each year at Dr. Joe Ward Elementary we honor our two
wonderful counselors - Ms. Hicks and Mrs. Jordan by having special events
each day. "The Six Pillars of Character" - trustworthiness, respect,
responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship are exhibited in our school throughout
the year. During Counselor's Week we demonstrated a particular pillar by dressing
in something special. On Monday we wore a favorite team or football jersey (Citizenship);
on Tuesday we wore hats ( Respect); Wednesday we wore a Spurs shirt or black and
white to demonstrate Fairness; Thursday was Career Day, where we dressed in
what we would like to be when we grow up (Responsibility); and Friday was Rodeo
Day where we dressed in our western clothes (Caring).
