Music is one of the district's strengths, and students in jazz band, orchestra, concert band, string ensemble and chorus showcased that strength by performing a sophisticated, multicultural and multiple-genre program in May. That amazing concert was followed by Gold ratings for both band and orchestra at the New York State Schools Music Association Majors Festival, and a choral performance at Bethpage Ballpark, home of the Long Island Ducks baseball team.
The third-grade orchestra performed a special concert for family members and second graders who are deciding on their instruments for next year. Kindergartners also performed a show with songs and rhymes, singing in English, French, Russian and also performing in sign language. First graders performed a Unity in the Community concert, reminding the audience that one of Syosset's strengths is its diversity and acceptance of all cultures.
