Roslyn Marching Bulldogs Place First in Division 1 Field Band Championship!
Roslyn High School’s Marching Bulldogs placed first in the Small School Division 1 category at the 2024 New York State Field Band Conference Championship—held at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, New York on Sunday, October 27, 2024. The Roslyn Marching Bulldogs earned a score of 94.3 for their show, titled, “Equilibrium.”
The New York State Field Band Conference Championship show is the culmination of an eight-week season which features nearly 60 bands in thirty-four regional competitions throughout the state. Band members, directors, staff members and boosters from each of the competing schools spend countless hours preparing for this prestigious event.
The Marching Bulldogs returned home on Monday, October 28th, to a jubilant crowd gathered in front of the high school. Board of Education President Meryl Waxman Ben-Levy, Superintendent Allison Brown, and Principal Scott Andrews, along with various administrators, parents, and community members, celebrated as the buses rolled into the circle. Students stepped off the buses beaming with joy, greeted by banners and pom-poms cheering them on.
“The Roslyn community is the epitome of the statement, ‘it takes a village.’ We contribute the success of this season not only to our talented and dedicated students; but to the parents, high school administration, central administration, and the Roslyn Board of Education,” said RHS Band Director Mr. Mauriello. “Without everyone’s support of the program, this truly would not be possible. This is the highest score that the program has ever received and I’m so proud and grateful to everyone involved."
