Alma Mater

The Worcester Preparatory School (Worcester Country School) Alma Mater was written in 1971 with lyrics by Dr. Merle Marsh and music by Susan Hayman. It was revised by Dr. Marsh and Music Teacher Dan Freed when the school name changed.
Lyrics:
From the shores of old Delmarva 
Alma Mater praises ring 
Ever onward, ever forward 
Proudly Worcester's song we sing. 
Red and white and blue our colors, 
Symbolizing Worcester's role 
In the realm of truth and knowledge 
Seeking wisdom as our goal. 


Warm our hearts with understanding, 
Mold our backgrounds as we lead 
Worcester Prep in new directions 
To a world ahead in need. 
We'll be persons with compassion, 
Educated to be free, 
Guiding others with our knowledge 
And our own integrity. 


We will proudly bear as banner, 
Lions by the fleur-de-lis, 
Crowned by the torch of knowledge, 
And our own ability. 
We sincerely vow to Worcester 
To bring honor to her name; 
So that by our words and actions, 
We will e'er increase her fame.
