The Main Street Way The Main Street Way, with its character traits of being respectful, responsible, honest and caring, is the common lens through which our behavior interventions are employed. We recently asked our students to tell us what they thought The Main Street Way was; and almost without exception, they were able to name the traits. Please watch our fun video it will put a smile on your face!
