Congratulations to students from South High School who received the Academic Award during the 2013 recognition ceremony. In addition to numerous DGS Fine Arts students receiving awards for Academic achievement, several DGS Fine Arts students performed as part of the ceremony. Senior Mara Alvarez sang the National Anthem to begin the event. During the course of the awards ceremony, senior cellist Andrew Molina performed a movement of a Rachmaninoff concerto, and senior bassoonist Rachel Wydra performed a movement of a von Weber bassoon concerto. Both students displayed why they were All-State musicians as juniors, and added an artistic dignity to the event that was impressive.
