Alma Mater Oh Collinwood, thy praises now we sing; Dear Collinwood, to thee our gifts we bring. IVe hail thy colors, both the blue and gray. Thy spirit leads us on our upward way; And as we come to take our leave of thee. We pledge our love, our faith, and loyalty. Oh Collinwood, thy sons and daughters free. Go forth to love and serve humanity; The lessons thou hast taught in hall and field. Shall be to us a bulwark and a shield; A nd if the years shall bear us far from thee. We'll hold thy name in hallowed memory. Music by Sibelius Words by A. H. Ford

The Happiest Years OOONER or later the truth will be known. Your six years in junior and senior high school have been the happiest years of your life, and will always be so. At graduation time you may doubt the truth of this statement. You may consider the past six years to have been only reasonably happy and rather uninteresting. Five years later, however, you will appreciate the good times you had and the many fine friends you made while at Collinwood. NY high school graduate will tell you that he never had a better time in his life, than he did in school; although, while he was at school he probably didn’t think he was particularly happy. Sometimes we’re so close to a thing, we can’t really see it clearly. That’s why it’s so important to preserve the memories of high school days, to remember every detail possible, so that, when we look back on them, years later, they will seem as real and vivid as if they still existed. Your classbook will be a key to these memories. Here’s hoping it will be a prized possession and a source of pleasant memories for many years.
