What a fantastic way to wrap up our marching band season!

We are SO proud of all our talented musicians! Our 6th graders absolutely knocked it out of the park with their three songs, and it was wonderful to see their hard work shine.

To our incredible seniors, thank your for your leadership, dedication, and musicianship. You’ve left your mark on this program, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for each of you!

We pulled off a special surprise for Mr. Gumina in honor of his final marching band season as director. As the band performed a beautiful arrangement of *Over the Rainbow*, we celebrated the incredible impact he has made on our students and our program. What a meaningful moment and a wonderful way to honor his years of dedication!

A huge THANK YOU to our band parents and families for your continued support, encouragement, countless volunteer hours, and commitment to helping our students thrive. And thank you to Lisle District 202 for supporting music education and providing opportunities for our students to learn, grow, and make memories through band. It truly takes a community, and we are so grateful to be part of this one!

What a memorable end to an amazing season! Congratulations to all our musicians, and thank you to our directors, families, and school community for making this year so special.

Once a Lion, always a Lion!

What a night for Lisle!

Senior Night (for nearly half of the senior class participating in various activities! Or so it seemed) the soccer team being crowned conference champions, and the football team bringing home another W made for an exciting evening all around!

It was also the final stadium performance for our 2026 LHS Marching Band, and what a way to close it out! The band performed four fantastic numbers from West Side Story and gave us another performance to be proud of.

We also celebrated our incredible seniors. We are so grateful for the leadership, musicianship, dedication, and joy they bring to our band family. They have made such a lasting impact, and while we cannot wait to see all the amazing things their futures hold, we know they will be dearly missed.

The evening was especially bittersweet as we honored Mr. Scott Gumina, our LHS Band Director for the past 16 years and a member of Lisle District 202 for 29 years, as he prepares for retirement at the end of this school year.

The time, talent, love of music, and unwavering dedication he has shared with our students have been an incredible gift—not only to the band members, but also to their families and our entire community. We are so thankful for all he has given to Lisle and the lasting impact he has made on generations of musicians.

Thankfully, we still have the rest of the school year to make more memories with our seniors and Mr. Gumina! There is still plenty of music to make and much to celebrate.

Mark your calendars for our upcoming concerts!

October 21, 2026: Join us for our first fall concert featuring the 6th Grade Band in the LHS Auditorium.

October 28, 2026: Our LHS Jazz Bands take the stage for their first concert of the year, a special joint performance with the Benet Academy Jazz Bands in the LHS Auditorium.

Thank you to our students, directors, families, and community for making this such a memorable evening. The final stadium performance may be behind us, but the music continues!

Apologies for the delayed post…

The LHS Marching Band loved having the LJHS 8th Grade Symphonic Band join them for their pre-game performance at the Homecoming game and then in the stands during the first half! It was such a special opportunity for these young musicians to perform alongside the LHS band.

A big congratulations to all of our band students who were selected for the Homecoming Court!

And also to our football team that won in overtime and secured a play-off spot. What a game!

Now, we’re looking ahead to this Friday night for our final stadium performance of the year, Senior Night, and Mr. Gumina’s final football game marching band performance as our director before his retirement at the end of the school year.

It is sure to be a bittersweet evening filled with fantastic music, some great football and special memories.

Please join us Friday night as we celebrate our seniors, honor Mr. Gumina, and cheer on the LHS Marching Band and football team at one last home game season!

Let’s fill the stands and make this final performance one to remember!

What an exciting time to be part of the Lisle Band family!

The LJHS 8th Grade Symphonic Band (yes, you read that right — 8th grade band!) joined the LHS Marching Band for a joint rehearsal as they prepare for this Friday night’s Homecoming Football Game. And let me tell you… we cannot wait to hear them play!

There is something pretty special about seeing our younger musicians and high school musicians come together, learning from one another and sharing their love of music. And how amazing is it that LJHS now has THREE separate bands?! What an incredible accomplishment and something our entire school community can be proud of!

Friday night is going to be a special one, so come out and celebrate with us! (times are approximate)

👑 6:20 PM — Homecoming Court Introductions
Four of our very own Marching Band members will be part of the Homecoming Court!

🎶 6:40 PM — The Band’s Pre-Game Show

🏈 7:00 PM — Kickoff!
Our Lisle Lions 🦁 take on the Herscher Tigers 🐯

We are so proud of all of these students and the time, dedication, and heart they put into making music together.

Come cheer on our students, support our bands, and enjoy a great night under the Friday night lights!

Let’s go, Lions! 🦁🎶🏈❤️
