At its Oct. 16 meeting, the School Committee unanimously approved a cultural excursion that would allow Dartmouth High School student musicians to travel to Spain. 

The DHS music department most recently traveled abroad to Scotland in 2018. DHS Orchestra Director Heather Church said “We had 102 people on that trip, about 60 students and the rest chaperones and staff. We are looking at about the same numbers for this one.” 

Church added “We’ve traveled quite a bit over the past 20 years since I’ve been here. I try to arrange one international trip every four years so that every student can have the opportunity. 

The proposed trip was quickly voted on. 

“How exciting for our students to have this opportunity, I want to tag along.” Said DPS Superintendent Dr. June Saba-Maguire.
