Implementation of Character Education in Elementary School

4.Collaboration with Parents and the Community

     The implementation of character education will be more effective if parents and the community are involved. Schools can hold regular meetings with parents to discuss ways to teach character values at home. Community involvement can also help by organizing joint activities that teach the importance of mutual cooperation and social awareness.

C.Challenges in Implementing Character Education

     Although character education is vital, its implementation is not always smooth. Some of the challenges include limited time in the curriculum, lack of resources such as books and teaching materials that support character education, and differences in values held by parents and the community. Therefore, close cooperation between schools, parents, and the community is needed to create a conducive environment for the development of students' character.

Conclusion

The implementation of character education in elementary schools is an important step in shaping a generation that is not only academically intelligent but also has high integrity and social awareness. By integrating character values into the curriculum, extracurricular activities, and daily life, we hope to create children who are prepared to face future challenges with a positive and responsible attitude.
