3/31/2023 - Oneida County Elementary All-County Festival
On March 31 and April 1, 2023, students from Marcy, Deerfield, Westmoreland Road, Hart’s Hill, Parkway and the Middle School came together with other students in grades five through seven to participate in this year’s Oneida County Elementary All-County Festival held at Rome Free Academy in Rome, NY.
In order for students to be eligible for this festival, they had to be recommended by their school music teacher as some of the best of the best students in their school performing groups.
On March 31, students from across the county joined together and began rehearsing their repertoire. This concluded with a live concert performance on April 1.
Students are instructed by Mrs. Jessica Decker (Deerfield), Mrs. Lauralee Driscoll (Deerfield and Hart’s Hill), Mrs. Charity Dreier (Marcy), Mrs. Margaret Tallman (Westmoreland Road), Mrs. Caitlyn Clark (Parkway) and Mrs. Chantelle Nobis (Parkway/Middle School).
One of our own Whitesboro music teachers, Nicole Williams (High School Band Director), was the guest conductor for the Elementary All County Band for the festival.
