Local students warm up pipes for Europe trip
The hills will be alive with the sound of music next year, when choir students from Naugatuck and Woodland Regional high schools sing in France and Wales, respectively.
Twenty-six students from Naugatuck and 20 from Woodland will be making their mark across the pond when they tour Europe.
“It’s a great opportunity for the kids,” said Region 16 Superintendent James Augostine. He said the trip will broaden the depth of the students’ experience and be a great cultural exchange.
