As I checked my facebook feed last night, I saw several
photos posted by a friend of several of my high school classmates who are
holding a mini reunion. One of the outings involved a trip to the Historical
Society of the town where our high school was located. While there they were
able to look at the Society’s collection of materials related to our Alma
Mater.
As much as I enjoyed seeing my former classmates, I was very
excited to see one of the photos which showed a typed copy of our “School Song”.
Not only was it complete with both verses but right above it was the original “School
Song” that was used until 1938 when the version that we had sung was composed.
It gave me a huge thrill because my mother has graduated in 1935 from the same
school! Now I knew the words to the song she had sung in high school.
