.3 M . OUR SCHOOL There it stands, upright and firm, A challenge to every child, A challenge to enter and graduate, To face the world unbeguiled. Here in our school, we learn about life, About people, their ideas and ways, And we build ourselves to compete with them For the rest of our livelong days. Our school's a stepping stone to success, A foundation, firm and strong, which will last forever and can't be destroyed It's been part of our mould for so long. There's a spirit within this school of ours, That's American through and through, And it makes us proud of our U. S. A. That land of the Red, White and Blue! Yes, 1t's a great place, this school of ours, Our free flag floats above lt, 'tis many a year we've labored here, But 1t's our school, and we love it. Ronald Reiss -g,
