MILFORD • Choir members at Lauralton Hall left Thursday on a field trip of sorts that required individual clearance from the U.S. Secret Service.

The girls, members of the school’s advanced vocal ensemble and concert choir, needed the clearance because they will perform Sunday before President Bush at ceremonies in Jamestown, Va., which was founded 400 years ago and is believed to be the birthplace of modern America.
