Photo: All-State Musicians Take the Spotlight

Hauppauge school officials recognized and honored those student musicians who received the top honors in New York State. 

Hauppauge Board of Education recognized and gave plaques to its six All-State musicians who were invited to perform at a state level this year. 

Each of these students prepared a solo audition for New York State School Music Association earlier this year. The six students chosen for All-State honors received among the highest marks in the state on their chosen audition in band, choir, orchestra or the wind ensemble. 

Those Hauppauge students asked to perform at All-State included Dionna Marie DeRose, Jennifer Kim, Alexandria Merrell, Christine Phelan, Rocco Recce and Brianna Schoen.
