    Garden City Music Department continues to earn the distinction of being named one of the NAMM Best Communities for Music Education in the nation.
     
    Every year I am proud to announce the tremendous achievements earned by our music students.  This year we have the distict honor of having a high school band student named a Long Island Scholar Artist winner!  In addition, eight students were accepted to perform at the All-State Winter Conference with one additional student selected as an alternate!   The Garden City Music Department is also proud to have one student selected to perform at the All-National Conference, with one additional student selected as an alternate.  These honored students have been chosen through a rigorous assessment process involving thousands of the most talented high school students across New York State and the nation. In addition,over 100 students in grades 5-12 also earn the honor to represent Garden City at the NMEA All-County and LISFA Festivals each year. 
     
    The Art Department students also continue to be selected and honored each year at the ASA All-County exhibit and Go Ape, to name a few.  This year we have one Long Island Scholar Artist merit recipient.
     
    Congratulations to all our students for your excellent accomplishments in the Arts!
