Jazz Festival Rehearsal
On Wednesday, Jan. 16, the jazz band of Highland Middle School practiced alongside the jazz band of LHS, preparing for their festival later that week. The two schools gathered in the LHS auditorium for their rehearsal. They spent a couple of hours perfecting each song they were to perform during their concert.
The saxophonists of Highland and LHS play together, combining their differing years of experience.
![Compared to other LHS frosh/sop plays, “Honk” is a lot different. Mr. Thomas made the collective decision to turn this production into a musical and tour various elementary schools in the area. “[Mr. Thomas] decided to make a frosh/soph play [into a] musical [because] typically freshmen and sophomores dont get into [the winter musical] because there are older, more experienced people – same thing with crew,” said Brooke Weintroub, a member of Honks running crew. “This is a thing for underclassmen to grow their abilities.”](https://www.lhsdoi.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/IMG_1926-600x400.jpg)
