Character Ed Award

The characteristics that Tyler portrayed everyday are the elements of self-reward and happiness.

The way Tyler chose to live his life by making such good choices is why he was so happy and confident. He believed in himself and he could walk with his head held high.  He not only knew the meaning of honesty, fairness, respect and citizenship, but he displayed these in his choices and actions every day.  These personal characteristics are the qualities that the Character Ed Award represent.
