“Marc Levitt offers a powerful new perspective on the complex pedagogical and curricular issues surrounding character education. With courage, clarity and conviction, Levitt pleads with us to understand that it is only in authentic concern for the wellbeing of others that one rises to one’s full stature as a rich and authentic individual.”
Clifford Mayes Ph.D, Psy.D, Retired Professor of Educational Psychology, BYU and author
“Through a series of evocative stories and gentle wisdom, Marc Levitt provides a valuable introduction to the ancient human arts of ethical living, sharing and social cooperation.”

“As a public school superintendent, I was thrilled to see this book become available for educators and those interested in improving school climate across the country. Using cultural references and narrative and applying theory into action, Marc Levitt’s fine work provides practical suggestions for working with young adolescents to help them become more reflective of their own behavior and tolerant of others. Unlike many books promoting effective pedagogy, A Holistic Approach for Cultural Change is less a book of lesson plans and “recipes” and more a book that will open up new avenues for teachers to shift mindsets and establish classrooms that promote greater student agency and mutual understanding. Mr. Levitt’s book should be on every educator’s reading list.”
Jody Ian Goeler, Public school superintendent
