Tech upgrades, new software, login changes everywhere
Cafeteria supplies, CEP, watching every penny’s wise

Sports funding, arts and crafts, our fiscal prudence makes it last
Facilities and field trips, budget cuts can make us flip
Chorus:
We didn’t start the budget,
It was always turning, since the kids are learning

We didn’t start the budget,
No, we didn’t write it, but we’ll try to right it

Every year there is that beginning-of-the-year anticipation. Waiting for the students to arrive. They
show up in their favorite superhero T-shirt looking for a new friend. They wear a beautiful dress with
matching beads in their hair. They sport their fresh cut and new button up shirt. Some arrive with big
smiles on their faces, some put on a brave face and some can't help but to cry in the shade just outside
the gate.

We remember why we go through anticipation and the rush every year getting ready for each of them. It's
about all of them. As we start to settle into the new school year, we know we will still have challenges,
but when we band together we accomplish great things. Have a wonderful school year!
