Most schools have academics as a part of a core curriculum and focus on developing character as a secondary motive. However, the Kindness School has a different approach to student learning. The Puget Sound Community School in Seattle, Washington is a 5-day-a-week school rooted in helping kids from grades 6-10 build character and learn to be kind. There are no required academic classes, but classes where students take subjects that interest them. When you concentrate on building character, academic learning takes place naturally. Students get to go into their community to help spread love and kindness to learn how to put their passions into action.
