CLASS COLORS Orchid and Silver
CLASS SONG ALMA MATER
Thou hast not tall or stately spires Ascending toward the skies; No sculptor's work of art is here, Or round about thee lies. Yet Wakefield High, thou art to us A great and sacred shrine; We'll keep within our memories These dear old walls of thine.
We know not what the future holds Of gladness, wealth, or pain; But wisdom learned within thy halls With us long will remain. The friendships of these happy years We'll keep where'er we go; And always praise thee, School of Ours- Thy vision made us grow.
CHORUS
We'll honor thee as on we go Through paths that lie ahead; And by our loyal, upright lives Thy faithful teachings spread. In foreign lands-on distant seas- We may our fortunes try;
It matters not where'er we roam, We'll love thee, Wakefield High.
Words by Marjorie W. Wellman, '32 Music by Eleanor Nutt, '32
