I teach 7th and 8th grade students in an urban school district where a majority of the students receive free or reduced lunch.

Our school is implementing a character education component to the already rigorous academic curriculum. Unfortunately, no money is available for this much needed aspect of teaching.

I have already purchased a set of six posters that portray beautifully the pillars of character with an original oil-on-canvas painting. These posters vividly depict influential people of character with reasons how they show caring, respect, trustworthiness, fairness, citizenship, or responsibility. Students need to see these posters without risk of damage from fingerprints, dirt or even weathering over time. I am requesting poster frames that would keep these works of art beautiful for years to come.

You would make it possible for my students to view real life examples of strong character men and women. With these traits constantly reminding them of what makes a well rounded person, you will help influence leaders of tomorrow.
