Seven band students participated in the ILMEA District 7 Senior Festival at Glenbrook South High School. They passed a competitive audition process to be selected alongside the best musicians from local counties. They worked with renowned conductors and then performed a concert.
The Day of the Dead/Día de Los Muertos event was a success! An ofrenda (altar) was setup for loved ones who have passed. Guests celebrated the memory of these loved ones by participating in activities they may have enjoyed: dancing, crafting, eating and more. Great job, LASO!
