Moriches school choir performs national anthem at Stony Brook University event


William Floyd School District | Official website

Students from Moriches Elementary School had the opportunity to showcase their musical talents during a recent Stony Brook Seawolves women’s basketball game. The 4th and 5th-grade choir performed “The Star-Spangled Banner” under the guidance of directors Mrs. Jessica Salaway and Mr. Zachary Carrillo.

In conjunction with the performance, Stony Brook University collaborated with the Moriches fifth graders to raise funds. A portion of the ticket sales from the game was donated to support the students' annual trip to Broadway, where they plan to see the musical Aladdin.

The event was not just about singing, as the students participated in the "fan tunnel," giving high fives to players and coaches as they entered the court. This opportunity offered an engaging experience for the students and their families, highlighting the school's music program.

Acknowledgments were extended to Stony Brook University for supporting William Floyd students, and congratulations were given to the Moriches Elementary School choir for their performance.
