Ma’at (that which is straight) was the systematized sacred-spiritual ideal of ancient Kemet. It was the underlying current that intricately connected all things including human behavior. It was the universal ethical principle of ancient Egyptian religion, denoting “justice, order, and truth.” Ma’at was connected to the entire existence of the universe, and was not limited to ethics for human beings alone. Ma’at was the perfect order, toward which man should strive. It was, therefore, considered essential to live according to the principles: Truth, Justice, Righteousness, Order, Balance, Harmony, and Reciprocity. The whole of the Kemetic society hinged on the furtherance of these principles. At Woodlawn Community School, we believe that these principles are essential to the development of the Whole Child. It is for this reason that we remind ourselves of these virtues in our daily morning ritual. The Virtue of TRUTH: We believe in TRUTH. I will always seek to know what is correct and I will not lie or speak falsely of myself, my family or my race. The Virtue of JUSTICE: We believe in JUSTICE. I will always be fair in what I do and I will not cheat myself, my family or my race. The Virtue of RIGHTEOUSNESS: We believe in RIGHTEOUSNESS. I will always be correct in what I do and I will not allow others to influence me to do wrong to myself, my family or my race. The Virtue of ORDER: We believe in ORDER. I will respect the natural order of the universe and I will no separate myself from that which gives order to my family, myself, or my race. The Virtue of BALANCE: We believe in BALANCE. I will strive to understand and respect the need to be complimentary and I will not be in conflict with myself, my family, or my race. The Virtue of HARMONY: We believe in HARMONY. I will always be in rhythm with what is good and I will not be in opposition to what is good for me, my family or my race. The Virtue of RECIPROCITY: We believe in RECIPROCITY. I will always seek strive to do the proper think at the right time and I will not bring shame to myself, my family or my race. The Virtue of KNOWLEDGE: We believe in KNOWLEDGE. I will always study at the proper time and I will use my brain at all costs and I will not fail myself, my family or my race.
