Ethics

Spotlight on Stage 2

Stage 2 has been exploring the topic of persuasion in ethics class. They've been asking some big questions:

  • Is it okay to exaggerate when you’re trying to persuade someone?
  • What about leaving out facts that don’t support your opinion – is that fair?
  • Should advertisers be allowed to use tricks to get people to buy their products?

These discussions have helped students think critically about how persuasion works in everyday life — from watching ads on TV to not telling the whole truth to get your way.

We Need More Volunteers!

Ethics classes at NRPS are growing, and we need your help!

We’re currently seeking volunteers to teach Kindergarten and Stage 3 classes. With more families choosing Ethics than ever before, we don’t have enough volunteers to meet the demand, and some students are now on a waitlist.

If you can spare 30 minutes on Thursday mornings, or know a friend or grandparent who might be interested, we’d love to hear from you.
