The following is an abridged version of the author's original Master's thesis written in 2008 for LeMoyne College in Syracuse, New York. This qualitative, structural, comparison determined if twelve Character Education studies of Brigham Young University, specifically the Positive Behavioral Support Initiative, assessed the same literacy program components this author designed in spring 2008 for the Syracuse Academy of Science Charter School in Syracuse, New York. Based on McConnell and LoGiudice's (1998) "That's Life! Social Language," five main curricular units connected student communication, conversation, emotions, peer relationships, and collaboration. This study found that the Society of Jesus and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints upheld the importance of an educational setting beginning at home and continuing religious objectives within K-12 academia. Still, future research was needed to analyze the level of impact of parochial curricula on U.S. Federal mandates.
