Andrew Warde High School Song Written in 1959 & Sung by Joan Grapski of the Class of 1963

I published this entry before, but it's been a few years. How many of you are familiar with the Andrew Warde High School song? Quite frankly, I didn't even know there was one. However, Joan Grapski of the Class of 1963 was kind enough to forward the lyrics to me. Joan also provided a video of her singing the school song. I hope you enjoy it. Her class is holding its 50-year reunion this year.

Here are the lyrics of the Andrew Warde High School song, written by the Class of 1959:

With heads held high and voices strong
To you our thanks we raise.
For knowledge, guidance, and for love
All through our high school days.


For the many friends we've made here
Who will last our lifetime through,
Andrew Warde,
We find ourselves indebted to you.

And so be sure, dear Andrew Warde,
When long from you we've gone,
The memories of these happy years
Will ever linger on.



Paul
