Activities that qualify as Be the ONE fall under the topics of service learning and character education.  These activities are meant to provide direct student experience while being incorporated and aligned with what is already taking place during the school day.  The activities that each campus implements need to promote a connection between youth and their community, good citizenship habits, enhance self-esteem, link personal and community values, and enrich academic performance.

At the start of each month, a new character trait is introduced to students, staff, and parents. Campus counselors incorporate these core values utilizing various means - guidance lessons, parent newsletters, campus announcements, and campus-wide activities.
