It is the mission of the Lake Forest High School Music Department to offer the highest quality performing and non-performing classes to our students and the community. We strive to instill in our students a sense of responsibility, leadership, musicianship, self-discipline and professionalism through daily rehearsals and performances. The Music Department seeks to promote civility by fostering a professional attitude toward concert etiquette for our students as well as our audience members. It is through these musical organizations, classes and performances that the music staff is able to offer a well-rounded music education to the student body at Lake Forest High School and to instill a life-long love for and involvement in music.
