Nice try but what other freedoms do you want to curtail. In a socialistic utopia that may be a good idea but here not so much

Actually this speech would have been unheard of 30-40 years ago. As it would have been unnecessary. As these standards were the norm for American schools. Once upon a time.
And America was hardly a “socialistic utopia” back then, right?

30-40 years ago? Are you kidding? 40 years ago was 1970. Even though they had said that prayer was not supposed to be officially in schools most schools had clubs and most schools still included prayer. Most schools around the country had racial tension sky high. There were language clubs like Spanish, Latin, etc. I graduated from high school in 1967 and the utopia that speech typifies was surely not evident.
I don’t know how old you are or what part of the country you grew up in but that speach would have cause an uproar in most parts of the country.
