We shall try to do our best
Never stopping for a rest
Always ready to help each other
Eager to learn from one another
Together, we shall strive
To build a better life
Together, together
All the way
We'll be polite, quick to obey
Grow in wisdom day by day
We are girls from RGPS
Always striving to be the best
Together, we shall strive
To build a better life
Together, together
All the way

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or song:
“A man of sense and energy, the late head of the Farm School in Boston Harbor, said to me, “I want none of your good boys,Mgive me the bad ones.” And this is the reason, I suppose, why, as soon as the children are good, the mothers are scared, and think they are going to die.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The city sleeps and the country sleeps,
The living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time,
The old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife;
And these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them,
And such as it is to be of these more or less I am,
And of these one and all I weave the song of myself.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
