Nebraska law requires every teacher to give special emphasis to honesty, morality, courtesy, and citizenship. GRiT delivers that character instruction — through practice, not worksheets.
Nebraska law directs every teacher “to arrange and present his or her instruction to give special emphasis” to a list of named moral and civic values. The duty is placed on each individual teacher in public and nonpublic schools, not on a separate district program.
