We started in the grades below, To study things we did not know. The Sophomore class had a good deal of fun. The picnics and frolics we did not shun. In class as well many frolics we had. The kind of fun that makes teachers mad. Not only in studies were we Juniors wise; We also received another prize. For in brawn as well as in brain. We Juniors gained wide-spread fame. And now of our work, justly proud are we. The best class in high school as you can see. In attention and manners we excel. For teachers and students all speak of us well. We Seniors, so solemn and dignified. With all our might and courage tried. To outdo the Seniors of other years. And leave nothing behind us but shine and cheers.
