"I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE
TO MY STUDENTS
TO THE PROFESSION OF TEACHING
TO THE NECESSITY OF LEARNING
AND TO SOLIDARITY
WITH MY COLLEAGUES
AT EVERY SCHOOL
AT EVERY LEVEL.
I REJECT CORRUPTION
I ABHOR DECEPTION
I DESPISE WASTE.
I STAND
FOR MY STUDENTS
FOR THEIR FAMILIES
FOR MY FELLOW EDUCATORS
ONE AND INDIVISIBLE
WITH THE HELP OF GOD.
