Qualities MEF Kids Hope for in a President
With the presidential election coming up in November 2016, MEF was curious to know what Midtown & Metro students were looking for in the next President of the United States. We received a lot of insightful answers, many of them rooted in the Character Education lessons that MEF students engage in each week. In light of Super Tuesday we decided to share these with the public. Enjoy!
“I want our next President to be the kind of leader that treats everyone equally.”
“I would like our next President to demonstrate empathy.”
“I hope they’ll be able to keep their promises. I hope they will be persistent.”
“I want our next President to be the kind of leader that takes care of people.”
“Character Development teaches me about dignity— I hope our next President demonstrates that.”
“The president has to be brave and a role model.”
“I hope our next President demonstrates determination and responsibility.”
“The next leader of the US should be someone who listens to people.”
“I want our president to show good values to represent our country. I want them to show good characteristics and to be professional on television.”
