I N Q ,-1 Class Memories Time is near when we must part, We all know this with heavy hearts, The sadness, happiness and fears, Shall we meet again in coming years? As Freshmen, we were busy as bees, Days were filled with study and glee, A happy year we will all admit, A year to make us mentally fit. As Sophomores, we must prove our worth, Cur loyalty we must never shirk, No matter how hard the task may be, Is the early training for you and me. As juniors, we did our very best, For our school, teachers and rest, Outstanding to the hardest test, Remember us among the best. As Seniors, our spirits were sky high, And a certain twinkle in our eyes, For we had reached our set goal, With a peaceful memory in our soul. Sharing each others joys and sorrows But smiling faces on the morrow, To teachers, students so happy and gay, Adieu, dear friends, we're on our way. -RUBY M. LEM-MONS 'YIXYS
