SCSD Singer Wins Music Scholarship

Vocalist Nubia Hill, a Nottingham High School student, placed third in the JazzIgnition competition held in early June at Signature Music in Syracuse.

Nubia was one of six finalists in the contest, which was established to engage high school jazz vocalists and instrumentalists from Central New York. The competition is sponsored by the Cultural Resources Council and Signature Music, a non-profit organization dedicated to offering music opportunities through Signature Music Camp and Signature Syracuse.

Sen. John DeFrancisco and Steve Butler from the Cultural Resources Council, awarded the scholarships to the students during a ceremony at Signature Music, 509 W. Fayette St. in the Delavan Center.
