Lovett School Song
We sing to the school that’s the finest of all,
Where we’re spending our days in the spring and the fall
While, together, we learn as we all grow tall
Lovett School, you have brought us together!
With new friends and old friends, at work and at play,
We are using our talents all through the day
And our teachers are helping along the way--
Lovett School, you have brought us together!
