They do, however, give us the fundamentals necessary for building good citizenship.

The popularity of this study is evidenced by the fact that we have two girls' and two mixed choruses. They practice throughout the year for our annual Christmas and Spring concerts. L.H.S. is also proud of its small chorus, a smaller group of singers, which sings at various churches many times during the year. The band, al- ways ready to supply peppy music to our games and ral- lies, helps to enliven the spirits of our students.
