Here’s some awesome news about the Westview Hills band program! The Illinois Music Education Conference, held in late January in Peoria for our state’s All-state musicians, also features over 150 clinics and performances presented on a wide variety of best practices. Each year several school ensembles are selected for the honor of performing at IMEC, and we are very excited to be able to showcase our band as an example of excellence to the rest of our state.
