The Syosset Central School District is pleased to announce that three Syosset High School seniors are being honored in the Long Island Arts Alliance (LIAA) annual Scholar-Artist program. 

Danielle Kaplan (Theater) and Janice Lee (Visual Arts) have both been named Scholar Artists, and Aaron Liu (Music) has received an Award of Merit. The goal of the LIAA Scholar-Artist Program is to showcase high school seniors who are exceptionally accomplished across five disciplines: Visual Arts, Music, Theater, Dance, and Media Arts. These prestigious distinctions are only given to 40 student artists across Nassau and Suffolk Counties.

“The diverse artistic talents of this year’s honorees reflect the excellence of our Arts community in the Syosset,” said Dr. Christopher Hale, Coordinator of Fine and Performing Arts at Syosset School District. “We are excited to celebrate Danielle, Janice, and Aaron for their outstanding accomplishments.”

Selections are made from a pool of students nominated by Long Island’s public-school districts, and from independent schools. The Scholar–Artist program is endorsed by the New York State School Music Association, the New York State Art Teachers Association, the Nassau and Suffolk chapters of the New York State Council of Administrators of Music Education, and the Nassau and Suffolk Art Supervisors Associations

Congratulations Danielle, Janice, and Aaron on this amazing accomplishment!
