Thank you to our music students for giving back to the community. Choir has been busy this week. In addition to preparing for tomorrow's Fine Arts Festival, they performed for the Kiwanis Club at Emmett's Downtown on Tuesday. Tonight, 43 students in 3 groups sang for Kensington International at the Hinsdale Golf Club for a charity event. Bravo DGS choir students!
