Capac Elementary has achieved the outstanding honor of being recognized as a 2025-2026 Green Shield School by The Positivity Project. This recognition reflects the commitment of the entire school community to intentionally building strong character, meaningful relationships, and a positive culture for students, staff, and families. Earning Green Shield status in the 2025–26 school year—among more than 800 schools across 25 states—is truly an exceptional accomplishment.
The Green Shield School designation represents a high standard of excellence and highlights schools that meaningfully integrate character strengths into every part of the school experience. Capac Elementary's work across the six key categories—Community Impact, Classroom Implementation, Schoolwide Implementation, Student Engagement, Family Engagement, and Leadership—demonstrates a comprehensive approach to cultivating a culture rooted in character and relationships.
Jeff Bryan, the CEO and Co-Founder of the Positivity Project, shared, "Schools like Capac serve as powerful examples of what is possible when character strengths education becomes part of the fabric of a school community. By helping students recognize and develop their strengths while fostering positive relationships, your team is creating an environment where students can truly thrive both personally and academically. We are incredibly grateful for the dedication and leadership of you and your team in advancing a positive school culture grounded in character strengths and positive relationships. To help celebrate this achievement, we will send the school a banner, a certificate, and a media package. Once again, congratulations to you, the Capac Elementary team, and the entire Capac Schools community on this well-deserved recognition."
