 The Auburn High School " Alma Mater " was written in 1955 by band and choral director George Corradino and members of the Auburn High School Glee Club . It replaced a previous alma mater of unknown origins . The " Alma Mater " is used at academic ceremonies and at some athletic events . A common epithet for the school used by students and alumni , " dear old Auburn High " , is taken from the last line of the song .
