DES Fourth Graders To Salute Veterans

The Fourth Grade Class at Durham Elementary will present its annual Veterans Day program on November 11at 8:30 a.m. in the school cafetorium.  The DES Show Choir, led by Director David Platt, will also be performing during the presentation.  All Veterans are invited to attend and will be recognized during the program.  This event will feature patriotic songs and readings from the students’ writing project about “What Veterans Mean to Me”.

This year, a very special guest will appear with the 100-voice choir.  Jennifer Chung, Operatic Soprano, will be performing with the group.  She has performed many operatic roles in Dallas, San Francisco, Arizona, Virginia, and other states, as well as being principal soloist with many well-known orchestras such as the Plano Symphony, Fort Worth Symphony, St. Gallen Orchestra in Switzerland and others.  She lives in Grapevine, with her husband, Philippe, and their two-year-old daughter, Charlotte.
