Libertyville High School bands deserve recognition

Updated: July 15, 2012 6:07AM

Music, it’s one of the major strengths of Libertyville schools. The music programs are some of the best in the state. They are often overlooked. The schools have invested in music and it has paid off in the quality of the bands, orchestras, and choirs that perform concerts throughout the school year.

Often the achievements of high school sports teams come up, but rarely do the accomplishments of the band program surface. LHS bands have won the Superstate competition every other year for many years. In the world of high school band programs few are as prestigious as those at LHS. If you get a chance to see a concert at the middle schools or the high school take it. You will be impressed at the high level music that is on display right here in Libertyville.
