The School Song
The school song is The Glen Air:
Hark when the Glen is singing,
Hear, hear our voices ringing,
Loudly and proudly singing,
Praise of our school,
There's where we're taught our duty.
Pride in our country's beauty
Honour, sincerity,
Obedience to rule.
Striving for all the things,
Justice and mercy brings,
Long may our proud standards
loyally remain.
School of our high endeavour,
School of our youth together
School of our hearts forever
Honour its name

School of our hearts forever
Honour THE GLEN

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or song:
“I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
“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)
