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:
“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)
“Separated lovers cheat absence by a thousand fancies which have their own reality. They are prevented from seeing one another and they cannot write; nevertheless they find countless mysterious ways of corresponding, by sending each other the song of birds, the scent of flowers, the laughter of children, the light of the sun, the sighing of the wind, and the gleam of the stars—all the beauties of creation.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
