Eleven East Rockaway student musicians were selected to participate in the Nassau Music Educators Association’s All-County chorus ensembles.

The district’s All-County students include fifth graders Abigail Cabral and Deborah Jermia and sixth graders Liliana Germani, Cassidy Knight, Adam Kolakowski and Carina Mannino from Rhame Avenue School and fifth graders Owen Falbee, AnnMarie Piazza, Georgia Vesce and Kennedy Meltzer and sixth grader Eamon Joyce from Centre Avenue School.

All-County selection represents one of the highest achievements for Long Island music students. Participants are chosen based on New York State School Music Association evaluations and teacher recommendations.

The All-County rehearsals and performances took place in January at the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts at LIU Post.
