Alma Mater Performed at Commencement

Upper School Faculty member, Mr. Sam Johnson, performed the new CSS Alma Mater at the 48th Commencement Exercises.  Mr. Johnson composed and wrote the song’s lyrics in 2010.  The alma mater debuted during the school’s 50th Anniversary celebrations this year and was adopted as the school’s official alma mater by the Board of Trustees in 2012. 

CSS Alma Mater
Music and Lyrics by Samuel Johnson

As the sunrise on the mountains,
Prairies east and forests west,
Where our hearts began the journey
We’ll return to CSS

Chorus:
We’ll return to Colorado
Can there be a school more blest?
Across the miles and seas of changes
We’ll return to CSS

Listen here to the alma mater recorded in GarageBand.
