Orange-Ulster BOCES Honors Regional Arts and Humanities Achievement

Thirty-four high school seniors who have distinguished themselves in the arts and humanities during their high school careers were selected as their district's Humanities Honorees. Although the annual Senior Scholar Humanities Breakfast was not held this year, the students deserve congratulations for their outstanding accomplishments in the fine arts, theater, music, fashion, and jewelry design.  A short presentation highlighting their achievements appears below. The Senior Scholar Humanities Honors Awards Program is coordinated each year by the Orange-Ulster BOCES Division of Instructional Support. The New York Schools Insurance Reciprocal (NYSIR) provides support for this program each year. OU BOCES honored each student with a star award, a lawn sign, and a certificate of achievement in the arts and humanities.
