APRIL 2016: Contest Excitement!
Assemblyman Dean Murray's Annual Photography Contest 2016

We had more participants in this photo contest than any previous year! Congratulations to all participants and those whose works were chosen to exhibit in the reception show! For the second year in a row, William Floyd High School students swept the top three spots in New York State Assemblyman Dean Murray’s student photography contest, which requested pictures of places, events and activities that showcased students’ schools and hometowns. Entries were judged by a panel looking at content, photographic competence and other artistic factors. The award-winning student photography was displayed at Brookhaven Town Hall during a congratulatory reception hosted by Assemblyman Murray. William Floyd students also received three honorable mention awards.
The top three students were Kasey Hammel, 11th grade, first place; Tiffany Negron, 10th grade, second place; and Sara Mason, 11th grade, third place. Receiving honorable mentions Michelle Descalzo, 11th grade; Kristen O’Shea, 12th grade; and Shayla Scott, 11th grade. Also chosen for display and present at the show from our school was Micheal Fuzie, I think he was really supposed to be an "honorable mention" simply because his work was displayed at the show, and he was even invited to attend, but the logistics of the awards somehow get mixed up a bit sometimes at these kinds of things. Even so, I am proud of all my photo students for simply entering their work and putting themselves "out there". |
Pictured below are the students whose work was on display at the Reception, see the Gallery tab for this award winning photography soon!

Photograph by Dale Luongo
Earlier this month, 41 William Floyd High School art students in grades nine through 12 received the highest rating of “Distinguished” on their portfolios at the annual New York State Art Teachers Association (NYSATA) Portfolio Project adjudication held at Sachem East High School.
To participate, students must be nominated by their teachers and then present their work before a professional artist for assessment and feedback. The Portfolio Project is an authentic assessment tool that provides students with an opportunity to present their portfolios and demonstrate their understanding and success in the visual arts.
The students’ projects will be on display at the Anthony Giordano Art Gallery at Dowling College in Oakdale until May 16.
Congratulations to all the students and their art teachers!
