The Lyrics of the Alma Mater:
Hail to thee our Alma Mater,
Praise for blue and white,
Ever loyal to Peninsula Catholic,
Onward in the Fight.

Faith and Courage is our motto,
Ever it shall be,
We, the Students of Peninsula Catholic,
Strive for Victory.

Faith in Jesus, spread by spirit,
Bringing light through deed.
Strength through valor, truth and honor,
Serving those in need.
