The districtwide Marching Band and String Ensemble brought the gift of music to the New York State Veterans Home at St. Albans, delivering a heartfelt and inspiring performance, on December 14. Talented musicians from all six of our buildings participated, with the Marching Band led by music teacher Mr. Anthony Pino and the String Orchestra led by music teacher Mr. Andrew Tilles. The students filled the room with melodies that brought smiles, joy and even a few tears of gratitude from the veterans in attendance. The event was a touching display of appreciation for those who have served our country and a testament to the compassion and community spirit of our scholars. Elmont UFSD is incredibly proud of these students for their exceptional performance and dedication to making a meaningful difference through music and service.
