“Green Island School”

The Ralston Elementary School Song
By Candace Ames (1932-1999)

Chorus:
Our school is on a green island
A sturdy homestead’s where we began
To understand
Our fruitful land
And harvest knowledge at Ralston School

We learn through our playing in first year K
In first grade, we’re learning in diverse ways
In second grade, we strive toward productive days
Here at Ralston School
In third grade, we reach out to make new friends
In fourth grade, we’re setters of helpful trends
In fifth grade, we’re ready to round the bend
Toward middle school

Our school is on a green island
A sturdy homestead’s where we began
To understand
Our fruitful land
And harvest knowledge at Ralston School

From autumn to springtime, we learn with glee
Our parents and teachers are pleased to see
We want to improve our community
And the wider world
With classmates from countries that span the globe
We respect their customs and stories told
We value traditions, both new and old
Here at Ralston School

Our school is on a green island
A sturdy homestead’s where we began
To understand
Our fruitful land
And harvest knowledge at Ralston School
