Libby students performed a variety of songs and solos at the Libby All Choirs Concert, Tuesday at the Libby Memorial Events Center.
Highschoolers gave flowers and thanked their choir teacher, Lorraine Braun, as she heads out of the Libby music program. Both shed tears.
In the concert pamphlet, Braun wrote she is very grateful to have been able to teach music for the past 12 years and is thrilled to have played a role in student’s lives.
“I implore you to never take music education for granted,” she wrote.
