Leyden High School Brings Their Fine Arts Tour to Lincoln

November 19, 2013

A great energy surrounded Lincoln Middle School today as students from Leyden High School performed for our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.  Performances by the band, orchestra, madrigals, color guard, and orchesis not only entertained our students, but got them thinking about the many opportunities available to them through the fine arts.  Opportunities extend beyond music and dance, and the tour included beautiful and creative works of art by students in drawing, painting, photography, and graphic design classes.

A highlight for everyone in the audience was the hilarious skit written by a Leyden drama club student, which was performed with help from Lincoln teacher Mrs. Knapp and one of our own eighth grade students who got to show off their acting skills. To end the event, our Lincoln band students played with the Leyden band, and they sounded fantastic!

The Fine Arts Tour is a delight to watch, and it is always a pleasure to see our former students who return to their District 81 home to perform for us.
