FACE Project

About FACE

Founded in 2000, the FACE Project (Functional Approach to Character Education) is a 501C3 nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote positive social and character development, increase socially responsible positive behaviors and reduce antisocial behaviors among school children.

The FACE Project is a unique Character Education program :

  • A research-based and comprehensive curriculum, integrated within the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL).
  • A teacher-friendly curriculum that is developed by educators for educators.
  • A curriculum that will help with classroom management.
  • A curriculum that offers 38 weekly lesson plans per grade, preschool through 5th grade that focus on learning tolerance, empathy and celebrating differences.

Teachers participate in an initial all-day, in-service training with follow-up consultations to institute a program in their classroom that is designed around a comprehensive Character Education curriculum, featuring weekly, individualized lesson plans for preschool through fifth grades.

Funded largely by a generous grant from the Annenberg Foundation, the FACE Project has already reached over 10,000 students in 8 counties in Virginia.
