iid Get Twenty VBE LON [Pau CAS GE al CLASS POEM We've fought our battle to the end, And gained our victory here. We've struggled through our high school days To bring this graduation near. At times we were blue, and said we'd give up, But we continued on and on. We journeyed onward to our goal; Now all those days are gone. At last our parting day has come, When we must leave our friends. We hate to say farewell to all, But we've reached our journey’'s end. Goodbye, friends and teachers dear. All have been quite true. We say “thanks” for all you've done. You've helped us carry through. “Knowledge has come and wisdom lingers” So in our future we will succeed. We will cling to that motto dear to all, And make it our future creed.
