The Character Education Program is committed to the development of universal values in ASFM students.

A Character Education Program is a major contributor in creating a school culture conducive to learning, and preparing students to become successful active members of their community. This program is led and designed by the Character Education Coordinator, in cooperation with the school's principal, implemented by the professional staff and supported by parents.To create an awareness in students, teachers and parents so that they may reflect on their values and how these affect choices they make in their lives.
