The Fife and Drum Corps at St. Paul VI Catholic High School in Chantilly had the distinct honor of performing at the French Embassy in Washington for the special “America 250” reception Sept. 29.

The students provided an incredible musical backdrop for the international guests and held the high honor of serving as the official ceremonial escort for the Marquis de Lafayette reenactor.

“The trip was great. I really enjoyed meeting people from all over the world and celebrating history in such a beautiful way,” said Keegan Settle-Barron from the class of 2028.
