Eleven fifth-grade students from Wading River Elementary School
showcased their exceptional talents at the Long Island String Festival
Association concert, recently held at Northport High School.
Students Andrew Costello, Siena Faragasso, Elizabeth Finter, Yiya Hu,
Kerrin McGuire, Johanna Ochsenfeld, Caroline Panasci, Damian Perez,
Cameron Sheedy, Katie Schaefer and Sophia Stadler were selected to
perform in the prestigious concert.
These students were selected for this honor along with others from
across Suffolk County on a competitive basis with New York State School
Music Association scores as the main criteria along with teacher
recommendations.
“On behalf of our District, we congratulate and celebrate all these
accomplished musicians,” said Wading River Elementary School Principal
Louis Parrinello.
