oUR CReeD
I believe education is the right of every person.
I believe the future depends on mutual understanding and cooperation among business, industry, labor, religious,
family, and educational institutions, as well as people around the world. I agree to do my utmost to bring about
understanding and cooperation among all of these groups.
I believe every person has the right to earn a living at a useful occupation and carry on that occupation in a
manner that brings the greatest good to the greatest number.
I believe every person should actively work toward improving social, political, community, and family life.
I believe every person has the right to earn a living at a useful occupation and that this right should not be denied
because of race, color, creed, sex, or handicap.
I believe every person should take responsibility for carrying out assigned tasks in a manner that brings credit to
self, associates, school, and community.
I believe I have the responsibility to work efficiently and to think clearly. I promise to use my abilities to make
the world a better place for everyone.
