Character Counts with Fax Gilbert

What is good character?  Students at SLES will be able to tell you.  Students in grades K-4 enjoyed an assembly with well-known speaker Fax Gilbert.  Fax spoke of the pillars of good character, while involving participants from the crowd, singing, dancing, and magic.   Enjoy the pictures below:


                        I can talk about the pillars of good character.
                       I can also grab the students' attention by doing the robot.
