We are warriors in the wasteland of a culture gone wrong

Expelling ignorance in a world of diminished expectations

Where good enough is the standard and personal responsibility is unknown

 

We are the guardians of the future not yet revealed

Promoting integrity in a world of instant gratification

Where false praise is doled out like candy and hard-won victories are uncommon

 

We are the nurturers in a sea of cast-away souls

Fighting apathy in an ocean of depleted resources

Where failure is expected and success is devalued

 

We are mentors and instructors

We are didactic and proud

We are strong and determined

We are teachers and students

 

Born each day

Our shared passion create the ties that bind

Skimming all the signs of the zodiac

We are the foundation on which all else is built
