HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION*

By Billie Jean Fears Class of 1956

Now that you are graduating, What are you going to do? Will you accept your diploma And then slump and say, "I'm through?"

No, Senior, you won't do that, I'll tell you the reason why, You'll consider yourself in combat Where you can win if you try.

So make this September the beginning Of your college career; And, Senior, always remember The good that was taught you here.
