Annual Pops Concert – 2024 Honoree Yvette Nunes

A heartfelt thank you to Mr. Madrigale and Mr. Kingsland for joining us at tonight’s Pops Concert. Together, with Mr. Flint, they represent over 50 years of music directorship at Dartmouth Public Schools.

In what is truly a testament to our honoree’s devotion to the DPS music program, all three have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Mrs. Yvette Nunes as a volunteer, DPS staff member and overall supporter of music education.

After all, “It’s for the kids!”
