Daily, my colleagues and I have to grapple with this challenge. The challenge of enforcing the dress code; the challenge of insisting on punctuality, the challenge of insisting on respect for the property of the school and reducing vandalism, the challenge of encouraging clean speech, respect for authority and general adherence to, and compliance with rules. |
Our schools face the herculean task of perpetuating values and attitudes for which many in our society have little regard. Schools cannot survive without discipline. Schools cannot survive without a sense of order and decorum. Schools cannot survive without rules and the adherence to those rules. |
The Garrison has lived up to my expectations. We are pushing winners and we have demonstrated that today. |
