I’d love to see Catholic schools all over the nation, young men and women, make this pledge their Lenten school discipline in 2013, Going Purple and keeping the school atmosphere clean.
I discovered it this a.m. when I turned the radio on and happened on a talk-radio show where they were taking calls about “the pledge” and skewering the idea (humorously) as “BLEEPing unrealistic.”
Exactly. Utterly unrealistic=highly motivating for kids.
I vote for Unreal.
Female students at the Queen of Peace High School in North Arlington, N.J., stood up during homeroom Friday, raised their right hands, and recited a pledge in unison.
“I do solemnly promise not to use profanities of any kind within the walls and properties of Queen of Peace High School. In other words, I swear not to swear. So help me God,” they said.
