this study is the search for happiness and a good life. It has been demonstrated that the tenets of a good life constitute service to humanity, living virtuously and development of human potential to the fullest (Kariuki, 2004). The process of schooling (education) was conceptualized as the main pathway that human potentialities may be developed, and therefore happiness attained. To effectively implement a curriculum for ME in any system of education, it is important that moral ideals are identified under which such a curriculum can flourish. The paper proposed fourfold criteria, that can possibly enable ME be successfully implemented in Kenya, namely; Eudamotive , normative, evaluative and pedagogical. The fourfold criteria were considered individually as necessary, and collectively as sufficient in implementing ME in Kenya in order to tackle the problem of moral decadence.
