YORK – The following Orleans County students participated in the New York State School Music Association (NYSSMA) Zone 2 Jr. High Area All-State festival this weekend at York Central School!
From Lyndonville: Gavyn Draper – Mixed Choir; Karalyn Klotzbach – Treble Choir
From Holley: Rosa Scroope, French Horn – Orchestra

These students are joined by the top singers and instrumentalists from all over Zone 2, which encompasses Monroe, and all its surrounding counties, including Orleans. Admission to the Area All-State ensembles requires students to receive a top NYSSMA solo festival score in the spring, a nomination from their music teacher, and eventual selection from a committee of music teachers from Zone 2 based on the first two criteria. It is a rigorous process and a tremendous honor for all students involved!
