Times-Advocate, 1978-09-21, Page 3Speaks to Huron board Hear of morals program Morals and values should be woven into school curricula to help with the emotional dilemma faced by even a five-year-old, a Lon­ don educator has told the Huron County ,, board of education. Don Santor. spokesman for London board of education's morals and values program, told trustees Monday night the program is intended to develop a child’s self- esteem, then gradually respect for other individuals and finally a respect for all people’s rights. He said the program should be included in the teaching of .all sub­ jects and not made a separate course. | Complete | | Custom Framing 3 Tor needlepoint, crewel, ^photographs, oil paintings,A ^etc. Regular or non-glareg f glass.

He said there is usually no conflict with the religious education children get out­ side the school system. The program is designed not to offend parents who want to develop their child’s own morals and values but do not want to introduce them to religious instruc­ tion. Santor said the program teaches a child how to make a value decision and then how to defend it. For younger children the choice may lie between loyalty to a friend and honesty to a teacher, he said. For older students, Santor deals with more controversial topics such as loyalty to a labor un­ ion and loyality to a job and boss. » "The vast majority of kids know the difference between right and wrong...the dilem­ ma is in choosing between two rights.” He explained in an inter­ view Tuesday that research on the program began in London in 1971 and was in­ troduced into London classrooms in 1976. ‘I Teachers involved in the program have said they in­ terreact with students better, he said. Santor said 17 boards of education have adopted some type of program on morals and values while another 15 boards are assessing the program. “Right now society is say­ ing very clearly ‘we want moral education? ” Santor addressed the Huron trustees at their in­ vitation. "They wanted sort of an introduction to the ball park and that’s what I did.” Board chairman John Elliot said trustees will need a few weeks to digest San- tor’s ideas before deciding if they should take any action. Some Huron ‘County schools already are involved in a non-denominational religious education class which deals with human values.
