19th November was a special day for our school - there was a ceremony of giving Gimnazjum nr 14 the name of prof. Jan Karski. Many guests were invited to attend this ceremony. Among them there were: the president of Ruda Śląska – Mr Andrzej Stania, the representatives of educational authorities, city councillors, directors of organizations our school cooperates with. The guest of honour during our celebration was Ms Kaya Mirecka-Ploss – the executive director of The Jan Karski Institute for Tolerance and Dialogue in Washington (with the branch in Ruda Śląska since 17 November 2008). 
The motto of the ceremony were Karski’s words: “We live as long as the memory about us remains alive”. To present the life of our patron and values he found important in his life the students prepared a performance based on Karski’s book “The story of secret state”. The show presented Karski’s fight for truth and courage during the World War II and trust he put in young people. As youth was so important for him the students and teachers are going to take steps to make moral values present in their everyday lives.
