Interaction Build Relationships

 
INTERACTION: Build Relationships.
Treat others with respect.
Communicate effectively.
Seek out and offer help when needed.
 

This principle refers to the ability to establish and maintain healthy and rewarding interactions and relationships with individuals and groups from diverse backgrounds. Students who demonstrate positive relationships communicate clearly, use active listening, and seek out and offer help when needed.
