It has been said that “teaching kids to
count isn’t nearly as important as teaching them what counts.”
Conceived by North Shore Day School Executive Director Jay
Jacobs, the Starfish Program is the cornerstone of our
commitment to developing character.
Exhibiting appropriate conduct in healthy competition.
Recognition and respect for the opinions, practices,
beliefs or behaviors of others.
The ability to recognize the achievements and
contributions of others.
Consideration for others and appreciation of the
individual importance of others equal to one‘s self.
The ability to build strong interpersonal relationships
with others based upon mutual trust, sharing and support.
Demonstrating a firm adherence to the principles of
honor and the sanctity of one‘s word.
Consideration of others and concern for the feelings
of others.
The quality of cooperation and volunteerism to get
needed tasks accomplished.
