Alma Mater On a hill in Bello Monte With the Chapel close beside, You will find our dear old Alma Mater Which became our trusted guide.
Refrain: Amid our many friends there And the faculty so kind We attended the Colegio Americano Better school you’ll never find.
When we leave our quiet hilltop On our many different ways, We shall carry pleasant mem’ries with us About happy High School days. |
Class Poem When we look back From down the years We will recall The happiness and tears.
Our Senior year Has flown so fast The happy days Have crowded past The end is almost here.
And as we bid This pleasant place Goodbye and go The world to face We hope that we’ll succeed. |
