Middle School Ethics Program

The middle school faculty has developed an internet based ethics program for students and parents. This program is designed to assist students in understanding the importance of ethical behavior in successful societies and to allow them to develop their own model of ethics. Legal areas are also investigated such as plagiarism and copyright law. Clarifying these issues for adolescents will assist them in being successful as they emerge into adulthood.

The links below will take you on a journey through ethics and allow you to investigate ethical issues. There are four modules. The first module is an introduction. The second two focus on specific ethical issues for investigation. The fourth is a culminating project where students use their knowledge to demonstrate their position and feeling about ethics. Enjoy your journey!
