WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN MUSIC?

➤ Does a student need to continue instruction in the Fine Arts during high school if he or she does not plan to pursue those fields in college?

Yes! High school students need a balanced education to be prepared for life after graduation!

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN MUSIC?➤ Can participation in high school music groups benefit a

student when applying for college?

Yes! Participation in a wide variety of high school programs, especially the Fine Arts, has become a

valued measure of student achievement!

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN MUSIC?➤ What does music offer the average student?

Most importantly, music offers students the chance to become a part of the artistic process. The opportunity to create music - to combine

memorable experiences a student can have.

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN MUSIC?➤ Is it possible to participate in athletics and music?

Each year music students can be found on the roster of most every sports team sponsored by LWC, including: football, basketball, baseball,

swimming, track, cross country, etc.
