We've heard so much
about you.
In anticipation
of your arrival,
ms. Levias, your other
vice principal, and i
have appointed
an executive committee
to oversee
certain areas
where we have noted
a need for improvement-
you may sit down,
mr. O'malley.
You think you can
run this school?
If you could,
then i wouldn't
be here, would i?
No one talks
in my meetings.
No one!
Take out your
pencils and write.
I want the names
of every hoodlum,
drug dealer,
and miscreant
who's done nothing
but take
this place apart
on my desk
by noon today.
Reverend slappy.
Yes, sir.
You're now
the chief custodian.
You will scour
this building clean.
Graffiti goes up,
it's off the next day.
Yes, sir.
The very next day.
Detention students
can help you.
Let them scrub
this place for a while.
And tear down those cages
in the cafeteria.
You treat them
like animals,
that's exactly
how they'll behave.
This is my new dean
of security,
mr. William wright.
He will be
my avenging angel
as you teachers
reclaim the halls.
This is an institution
of learning.
If you can't control it,
how can you teach?
Discipline is not the enemy
of enthusiasm.
Mr. Zirella.
Yes?
Mr. Zirella, you are now
my new head football coach.
Mr. Darnell.
Stand up,
mr. Darnell.
Mr. Darnell will be
your assistant.
You know why
you're being demoted?
Because i'm sick
and tired
of our football team getting
pushed all over the field.
Thank you. Sit down.
I want precision.
I want
a weight program.
If you don't like it,
mr. Darnell, quit.
Same goes
for the rest of you.
You've tried it your way
for years.
Your students can't pass
That means they can
hardly read!
They've given me
less than one year,
one school year to turn
this place around,
to get those
test scores up
so the state
will not take us over
to perform the task
which you have failed to do-
to educate our children!
Forget about the way
it used to be.
It's not
a damn democracy.
We're in a state
of emergency,
and my word is law!
There's only one boss
in this place,
and that's me,
the h-n-l-c.
Are there
any questions?
Mr. Wright.
The h-n-l-c?
The head n*gger
in charge.
Everybody, right up here,
right here.
Check this out.
When i want
your body...
george, brian, sams,
they want you onstage.
Let's go.
Right now.
Mrs. Santos,
what about us?
What about you?
What about me?
Sit down.
I said sit down.
What do they
want us for?
I don't know.
Go.
What do you got
to do around here
to get picked
for something?
Maria, sit down.
Get down
get down
some guys are lame
they want my fame
i got a girl
