ALMA MATER Up among our towering mountains There stands a school to us so dear. Where loyal hearts and eager voices Ring out their songs of praise and cheer; A school where classmates stand together. Whose foes will never fail to yield While we, its loyal sons and daughters Our Alma Mater shield. 1 Neath great green monarchs of our valley Where beauty lingers everywhere Where sun's bright rays and moonlight shadows Bring warmth and good cheer to the air. Here, in this neaceful littl6 valley. We111 shout out praises to the sky As we see the banners flying. Dear old Keene Valley High! Oh, our Keene Valley in the mountains The Adirondacks, white or blue. We must be loyal to our colors The Orange and Black which stand for you. Our cheers and songs all echo loudly. Our school must keep her spirit high As we see the banners flying Dear old Keene Valley High!
