Recently, several Leo High School students participated in the Indiana Band Association 45th Annual All-District Honor Band held at DeKalb High School. These outstanding band students were selected and enjoyed an exciting weekend of practicing, meeting new friends from other school and performing. These students have benefited from the expertise of the outstanding guest conductor, Mr. Jeffrey Doebler, and many band directors in the area.
Conductor Doebler serves as professor of music and director of music education and bands at Valparaiso University.
We are so very proud of our students who represented Leo High School and our entire district. The band members are:
Lucas Wagler - Clarinet
Ilana Bass – Bass Clarinet
Emerson Swineheart – Bari saxophone
Karter Howard – Trumpet
Lucas Lovellette – French Horn
Johnathan Smith - Tuba
Leo Jr. High student recognized for regional competition winner was Arya Goddard – Tenor Sax, other winners (not in attendance) Katelyn Edholm and Adrianne Cox.
Band director is Mr. Colby Stackhouse, principal Mr. Chad Houser.
Congratulations!
