Memories

 

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.
