Successful Tour/Exchange Drawing to Closure

Congratulations to the members of the District 99 Orchestra on a successful and exciting international music exchange that has taken the ensemble to Croatia, Austria, and Germany over the past two weeks.  Reviews of the ensemble's concerts have been spectacular, and - maybe more importantly - students have made friendships (with one another, and with new acquaintances in Germany) that will literally last a lifetime.


The Fine Arts Departments of DGN and DGS are immensely proud of these students - and staff - for serving as wonderful musical and cultural ambassadors through our ongoing exchange program with the city and Musikschule of Bietigheim-Bissinngen.


A special note of thanks is extended to Fine Arts faculty member Ms. Jennifer Mullen for her tireless work to coordinate the hundreds of details that accompany the coordination of an international tour.

Safe travels home on your nation's birthday!
