Making It Stick: Districtwide Character Education That Builds Belonging - Grant Wilson

from The CharacterStrong Podcast · host CharacterStrong

Today our guest is Grant Wilson, Coordinator of Counseling Services at Plano ISD in Texas. We talk to Grant about how his district is creating consistency and connection through a districtwide character trait of the month tied directly to their community created Code of Civility. He shares how uniting teachers and counselors around shared themes, like kindness, empathy, and responsibility, has reduced behavior referrals, built stronger school cultures, and connected classroom lessons to real community values. Grant also explains how tracking implementation through the CharacterStrong dashboard helps measure impact, guide support, and tell the story behind the data.
