RCS musicians earn honors in state festival

Every middle and high school ensemble at RCS earned honors during the New York State School Music Association Evaluation (NYSSMA) Festival Thursday and Friday in Bethlehem and Voorheesville.

Members of the high school band received a Gold award for academic excellence following a Thursday performance in front of judges in Voorheesville. Likewise on Thursday, the middle school seventh and eighth grade chorus received a Gold award following a performance in Bethlehem.

On Friday, the high school chorus received a Gold with Distinction award in Bethlehem – the first such award for an RCS choir, music teacher Scott Andrews said.  Also on Friday, the seventh and eighth grade band received a Bronze award following a performance in Voorheesville.

“This is a fantastic honor for all of our musicians,” said Andrews. “The judges were very strict this year and the honors our students received were well achieved through excellent performances and hard work.”
