From January 10-12, 2025, the New York State Theatre Education Association (NYSTEA) hosted nearly 900 students at the 28th Annual Student Conference in Callicoon, NY. The event provided high school students with over 100 workshops focusing on technical theatre, acting, dance, and voice.
This was Farmingdale High School's first time attending, with a total of twenty-five students participating.
Theatre instructor Glen Beck commended his students, saying, "The kids had a fantastic experience. It was a weekend filled with wonderful bonding, and theatrical activities. We absolutely can't wait to return!"
