 School Song

We are loyal to old Shelby High
We will honor her always
We will every hold her banners high
We will dread our parting days
We will faithful be whatever comes
To our alma mater dear
Her memory will lead us on
Through every passing year.

Music and words composed by Mildred Laughridge, Class of 1932
