Last week was ILMEA (Illinois Music Education Association) All State. This year was the first ever Junior High All State Choir (7th/8th grade only). 150 students were chosen throughout the state out of over 10,000 auditions. Max North was selected as one of those 150. Max went to Perioa on Friday for a 5 hour rehearsal which then continued Saturday morning until the concert at noon. This was the only time these students from all over the state were able to come together and rehearse. Congratulations Max!
