Our mission is to develop individual potential as far as possible. The use of music as a means of self-expression and communication is a key ingredient in this development. In order to achieve this, we will participate to the best of our abilities in all aspects of the school experience. We will give the best of ourselves individually so that we as a whole may be able to help each other attain the highest level of performance, not only in music but also in life. 

 LJI has four performing choirs: 

• HONOR CHOIR -- A select choir of mixed voices. It is an elite group that will have additional performance responsibilities during the school year.
  
• TREBLE CLEFS -- This is the advanced treble or advanced girls choir. This group is selected each year through audition. They will perform more challenging literature and may have extra perfomances, as well.
  
• MEN'S CHOIR -- This is an auditioned group of tenor-bass, male singers. The purpose of the class is to give young men an opportunity to deal with the challenges of a changing voice in a less threatening atmosphere.
  
• TREBLE CHOIR -- This is our entry level women's choir. They are also auditioned and perform at every major concert of the year.
  
  All of our choirs are award-winning groups. They have won numerous trophies and honors at competitions over the last 20+ years. We are very proud of our tradition of excellence.
