Do you think character and integrity based education should be taught in K-12 schools?

I've had some really inspiring talks recently with Col Matthew Fritz & Brig Gen John Michel and they brought me to thinking more deeply about the military core values and how we as service members & veterans might teach the younger generation about these important principles. While they pertain heavily to our everyday military lives, most of the civilian world isn't taught these values in any formal teaching or instructional environment.

My question to you is, how do you think teachers, schools and parents across America would receive & support such instruction? Would you volunteer to mentor or teach character and integrity based education to local children in classrooms?

Col Fritz & Brig Gen (Ret) Michel have started a pretty revolutionary program called "Mentors Matter". The goal is to have veterans support mentorship in thousands of K-12 classrooms across the US to develop character, leadership and civic responsibility. If interested, I highly encourage you reach out to them and learn more about the program linked below. I see this as being a great way to get our kids on the right path with values that will help them both personally and professionally. I'd enjoy hearing everyone's thoughts on this or potential ways you would structure a teaching syllabus around this topic. Thanks in advance!
