The Music Program at Father Lacombe High School takes place after school to help you make room for your other courses. Students in Instrumental and Choral Music have many performance opportunities in school at liturgies, Remembrance Day Celebrations, Graduation ceremonies and our Fine Arts Gala. Band and Choir also perform around our community and take exciting field trips to perform in Edmonton, Banff, Canmore, and Vancouver. The benefits of studying music are multifaceted including improved brain function, increased concentration and higher attainment in math and languages. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.
