I found this on the Hillsborough High School Alumni website:
I found some documentation that our Terrier Creed was written by students in 1957.
I, as a student of Hillsborough High School with pride and respect for myself and my school, pledge to uphold the Terrier Creed; And by so doing I will properly reflect the character, personality, and attitude of my school.
289 words in the NCO creed, however if you add the title "Creed of the Noncommissed officers" as a part of that count. Add 5 to that number: 294 total.
A terrier is part of the name of a breed of dog such as a Westie Terrier or a Jack Russell Terrier.
No, 2 words.
Yes
Same as in English. Many words do not have an equivalent, so you use the same words as the origin. For Jack Russell Terrier, that is English (Brittish).

NCO Creed stands for non- commissioned officers creed. It is a tool to remind and educate enlisted leaders of their responsibilities and authority, in other words it's a Code of conduct.
people and money
No. The only words you capitalize are Names of People or Places.See how it would look if you capitalized a species in the middle of a sentence:I have now got a Terrier.
Every first year FFA member( greenhand) must memorize the FFA Creed. The creed was written to join members together with those first two words...I believe. Even those FFA members who are out of high school probably can say at least one of the five paragraphs. To me the creed was the first step, the first time you feel that togetherness. Knowing that you are not alone and that everyone in your class has to get up and say the same thing. Congratulations on wanting to be in the FFA it is truly an amazing experience.
