Can you share your high school Alma Mater? Here is mine (Caesar Rodney High School in Dover, Delaware)

Caesar Rodney Alma Mater

Let our voices loudly ringing
Echo far and near,
Songs of praise thy children singing
To thy mem'ry dear.

CHORUS:

Caesar Rodney, Caesar Rodney
Tender, fair, and true;
Grateful sons with love unfailing
All their vows renewed.


All the days we've been together
Fondly we recall,
Days of fair or stormy weather,
Thou has gladdened all.

CHORUS:

Caesar Rodney, Caesar Rodney
Tender, fair, and true;
Grateful sons with love unfailing
All their vows renewed.


Years may dim our recollection,
Time its change may bring.
Still thy name in fond affection
Evermore we sing.

CHORUS:

Caesar Rodney, Caesar Rodney
Tender, fair, and true;
Grateful sons with love unfailing
All their vows renewed.
 
Herricks High Alma Mater Herricks High school, New Hyde Park, NY

Highlanders of Herricks High,
Singing out your praise.
For the years we spent with thee,
Oh those glorious days!
For the silver and the blue,
We will heir be true!
Every Highland Lad & Lassy
Sings Our love to you!
 
Nevada Union High School, Grass Valley, CA

On a hill, 'neath waving pine trees
Reared against the sky
Stands our school, our Alma Mater
Nevada Union High
Alma Mater, Alma Mater
Nevada Union High
Faithful, loyal, firm and true
we'll be 'til we die.
 
Thomas McKean H.S. - Wilmington, DE

With thanks and love we praise thee:
We strive to bring thee fame.
With reverence for thy memories
We glorify thy name.
Thy faith in us we shall fulfill,
Thy teachings as our guide.
Thy honor we shall cherish
And from it gain our pride.

Juli-terp-to-be, McKean's mascot is a Highlander.
 
I have to find mine. I went to two high schools. The Lake Wales Highlanders in Lake Wales Florida and The John I Leonard Lancers in Lake Worth, Florida.
 
Jeez, a lot of Highlanders here. My school mascot=Miners because we're cool like that.

We had a live Scotty dog for a long time. But now it's a cartoon character. Thank goodness they haven't made it into a person into a costume.LOL
 
Victorian College for the Deaf.

We don't have a school song. However, we do have school quote that we stand by... 'Utmost for the Highest'
 
Our mascot was a guy dressed in a kilt. No, I don't know if he wore anything under it. :D
 
I used to know it but it sounds so sad and pitiful though when it is sung. :lol:
 
Waterford High School from Waterford, CT and the Lancelots!! I'm sure Reba knows this one too xD

Hanover Park High School and the Hornets!! lol
 
I attended John Marshall Jr. and Sr. High School (oral-only program) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The mascot was Cardinal (red bird). I don't know the song as I had forgotten many years ago. I don't mind the school but I do hate the oral-only program. :roll:

Edit: The old school was torn down and moved to the University campus and is now called University-Marshall High School. :(

Yes, I graduated from that school. They were the Lancers, not Lancelots. :lol:

My freshman year I attended New London High School (the Whalers).
 
North Clay High School District #25 in Louisville, IL. Team name is the Cardinals. North Clay Cardinals. However, I will always be a Flora Wolf by heart, born and raised.
 
I graduated from East Islip High School (Cleary School for the Deaf program)

I can't find written lyrics but I have a video of graduates singing the alma mater song:
