*_PRINCIPALS OPENING MESSAGE TO STUDENTS_*

*
From: Dennis Prager, principal at a high school in Toronto, on the first 
day of classes in 2011.*

*To: The students and faculty of our high school. I am your new 
principal, and honoured to be so. There is no greater calling than to 
teach young people.*

I would like to apprise you of some important changes coming to our school.

I am making these changes because I am convinced that most of the ideas 
that have dominated public education in Canada have worked against you, 
against your teachers, against your parents, and against our country.

First, this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not 
care less if your racial makeup is black, brown, red, yellow, or white.


I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, 
Asian, or European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower, 
leaky SE Asian refugee ships, or on slave  ships.


The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, 
is your individual identity – your character, your scholarship, your 
humanity.


And the only national identity this school will care about is Canadian. 
This is a Canadian public school, and Canadian public schools were 
created to make better Canadians.

If you wish to affirm an ethnic, racial, religious identity through your 
school, you will have to go to another one.


We will end all ethnicity – race - and non-Canadian nationality-based 
celebrations. They undermine the motto of Canada. Everyone is equal, 
coast to coast.

And this school will be guided by Canadian values.


That includes all after-school clubs. I will not authorize clubs that 
divide students based on any identities. This includes gender, race, 
language, religion, sexual orientation, or whatever else may become in 
vogue in a society divided by political correctness.


Your clubs will be based on interests and passions -- not blood, ethnic, 
tribal, racial or other physically defined ties. Those clubs just 
cultivate narcissism - an unhealthy preoccupation with the self -- while 
the purpose of education is to get you to think beyond yourself.


So, we will have clubs that transport you to the wonders and glories of 
art, music, sport, debating, astronomy, languages you do not already 
speak, math, carpentry, and many many more.


If the only extracurricular activities you can imagine being interested 
in, are those based on ethnic or racial or sexual identity, that means 
that little outside of yourself really interests you, and that means you 
don't belong in this school.

Second, I am not interested in whether or not English is your native 
language.


My only interest in terms of language is that you leave this school 
speaking and writing English as fluently as possible. The English 
language has united Canadian citizens for more than 200 years, and it 
will unite us at this school. It is one of the indispensable reasons 
this country of immigrants has always come to be one country.


And if you leave this school without excellent English-language skills, 
your teachers and I will have been remiss in our duty to ensure that you 
are prepared to compete successfully in the Canadian employment market.


You will learn other languages here -- it is deplorable that most 
Canadians only speak English. But if you want classes taught in your 
native language rather than in English, this is not the school for you.

Third, because I regard learning as a sacred endeavour, everything in 
this school will reflect learning's elevated status.


This means, among other things, that you and your teachers will dress 
accordingly. Many people in our society dress more formally for a meal 
at a nice restaurant than they do for church or school.

Those people have their priorities backwards. Therefore, there will be a 
formal dress code at this school.

Fourth, no obscene language will be tolerated anywhere on this school's 
property -- whether in class, in the hallways or at athletic events.


If you can't speak without using the "F-word," you can't speak. By 
obscene language I mean the words banned by the Federal Communications 
Commission plus epithets such as the "N- word," even when used by one 
black student to address another, or "bitch," even when addressed by a 
girl to a girlfriend.


It is my intent that by the time you leave this school, you will be 
among the few of your age to distinguish instinctively between the 
elevated and the degraded, the holy and the obscene, the educated and 
the non-educated.

Fifth, we will end all self-esteem programmes.


In this school, self-esteem will be attained in only one way -- the way 
people attain it will be by earning it from their fellow students and 
teachers.


One immediate consequence of this is that there will be only one class 
valedictorian, not eight.

Sixth, and last, I am reorienting the school programme toward academics, 
scholarship, and away from politics and propaganda.


No more time will be devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, 
or terrifying you about sexual harassment or global warming.


No more semesters will be devoted to condom-wearing and teaching you to 
regard sexual relations as only, or primarily a health issue.


There will be no more attempts to convince you that you are a victim 
because you are not white, or not male, or not heterosexual, or not 
Christian.


We will have failed, if any one of you graduates from this school does 
not consider himself or herself inordinately lucky –

- lucky to be alive, lucky to be well educated, and lucky to be a Canadian.

Now, please stand and join me in singing, OH CANADA to the only flag in 
Canada.


As many of you may not know the words, your teachers will gladly hand 
them out to you.
