Character Traits   Developing Christian character traits in students is one of the primary goals of Summit Christian Academy. Each month, classes focus on particular character traits. They discuss the meaning of these traits and learn about Biblical figures that exemplified these traits in their own lives. Students that make an effort to demonstrate the monthly character traits are recognized and receive an award during a special chapel. 2009-2010 SCA Monthly Character Traits Month Trait Definition Verse August Respectfulness To feel or show honor for the feelings and rights of yourself, others, and the world around you; polite, well-mannered behavior toward others 1 Peter 2:17 August Confidence Happy with how God made you; Able to make decisions without giving in to peer pressure Jeremiah 17:7 September Obedience Willing to bless others by doing what one is told John 14:23 September Compassion Being kind, friendly, considerate, and willing to listen, give, and share; showing concern or sympathy for others.
