Student musicians from Middle Country Central School District’s Centereach High School and Newfield High School recently participated in two local September 11 memorial ceremonies. The students performed patriotic music to commemorate the lives lost on that day. The Centereach High School Women’s Choir performed at the Centereach Fire Department under the direction of Mr. Brian Hough. On the other side of town, Newfield High School senior, Kathleen Flaccomio, sang to attendees at the Selden Fire Department memorial ceremony and was joined by her music teacher, Mr. James Lowe.
The District continues to participate in annual community-wide events that serve as an opportunity for the student body, most of whom were born after the terrorist attacks, to learn about the events of that day and the sense of community and patriotism that followed. District students will continue to share their musical talents both at school functions and community events throughout the 2018-2019 school year.
