The best old memories for everyone:

The homeroom, the lockers, the glee and pleasure,
The classrooms, the teachers, though tests bring sorrow;
The library and all its books, the copious library nook,
A school’s the place with sights and sounds that follow.

The cafeteria, the bell, the daily scheduled and bell,
The hallways filled with chattering people;
Bustling and jostling, perhaps we're just a-dallying,
Though some at school become as jewels that we treasure.

The sports teams, the tickets, the fans, the fixings,
The choirs, plays and assemblies, held in doors and out;
The homerooms, the hallways, the playgrounds, the parks,
Where friends stay true and smiles bring out a shout.

The lessons, the quizzes, the messages, so wise,
Messages that feel like a battle cry;
Though school can be hard, of testing we’re a part,
We enjoy the learning, passing things by.

The dances, the fairs, the proms, the cats,
The arts, the sketches, plays and songs,
The study hall, the desks, the essay prompts, the tasks,
Development of ideas, where minds are never wrong.

At school there’s so much that’s clear and dear,
Though there are challenges, we rise up and cheer;
Friends, fun and challenges—these go along with us,
As our school life’s path leads us near.
