    To reward students who demonstrated empathy for the month of October, Ireland Elementary held an award ceremony and treated the students and their parents to donuts Wednesday morning. This is the first year that Ireland Elementary is having monthly awards for character education. In September students were taught about kindness and for November they will be learning about gratitude. "Academic and athletic awards are great however it's the way you treat people that matters the most," Ashley O'Connor, special education teacher, said to the award winners and their parents. First-grader Walker Swan enjoyed a donut with his mother, Spicy and father Charlie before heading to class.

"I've always done character education in my classroom and I think it's something that is important for all students to be involved in," Hanneman said.
