THE CENTER FOR THE 4TH AND 5TH RS conducts K-12 character education trainings, research, and evaluation and publishes The Fourth and Fifth Rs "best practices" newsletter. We define character education as the intentional integration of excellence and ethics—developing performance character (doing our best work) and moral character (doing the right thing) within an ethical learning community.
