'Twas the night before school starts, And you could feel it in the air. The creatures were stirring: Hornets, Comets. Senators, and Bears! The Hornets were buzzing With excitement for the year, As Maumelle got ready To hoot, holler, and cheer! The Comets are zooming, Moving at lightning speed For a great, new school year, Guaranteed! The Senators are ready To make their mark. Leading in the community From the school to the park. And the Bears are waking From summer hibernation, To take on the school year Ready and unshaken. So go to bed And get some rest As we begin tomorrow anew To make this school year the best! #pcssdproud #serveall
