Congratulations to the North Colonie students who were chosen to perform in the 2026 District Recital that took place last Wednesday, May 27th at Shaker Middle School. The audience loved your performances and your parents were so proud….bravo! NCFOM was delighted to sponsor a reception for the musicians and their fans afterwards. Thanks to Mrs. Melissa Veino, North Colonie Board Member and our outstanding NCFOM hospitality chair for another fantastic event. We are so grateful for you!
