MASCOTS George Gaines Janice Gilliand CLASS SONG Up bright and early, headed for school, Study like fury for my grades, While those hard boiled teachers, Have nothing to do, but fuss at us Seniors all day. Dig for the nuggests, digging all day, Dig till evening is nigh, Then we ll tell everyone, that the miracle’s done, In mem’ries of Old Goldston High. Dear friends behind, don’t you know we’re rejoicing, Though tears are in our eyes; with gladness in our hearts, we’re parting from dear Old Goldston High. There lies the pathway, Pointing ahead, Clear as bright new day, To our work ahead and our future life, As farewell to high school we say. By: Josephine Gaines Page Fifteen
