SCHOOL SONG We love thee Central, love thee so true, None other can please us, As you do ---------------- -- ---- ------ --- Striving to reach, the goal you hold so high, We'l1 love thee Central, T111 we die. Class Poem To Central, dear school of schools, A toast of thankfulness For the knowledge, skill and steadfast rules, You have taught us to possess. We are ever grateful for your care, For your arduous labor and strife. You are one in a million, you're beyond compare, The unweaving foundation of life. With heaviness we cast an eye Upon the road before But you, without the slightest sigh, Our burdens firmly bore. With the manners and the arts That mould a person's soul, Still clinging around our hearts, We leave our sweet abode. But the thought that we must part, From the place we love so well Gives us such a heavy heart, For til eternity here we'd dwell. Now we shall go elsewhere Ever cherishing memories of you, Into a world of anxiety and despair, and we bid you, dear school, adieu.
