   The Broadway Education Alliance has announced Christopher Fukuda (Class of 2025) as an award nominee for Outstanding Performer in a Musical, part of the Roger Rees Awards for Excellence in Student Performance. Chris was nominated for his role as Curly in the South High School production of Oklahoma!.

A total of 50 students from the Greater New York area (25 male and 25 female) have been nominated for their roles in an officially licensed production of a Broadway musical during the 2022–23 academic year. The South High production of Oklahoma!, presented on November 18–19, was adjudicated by a team of professional industry performers and educators who scored student performances according to a formal rubric.

  As part of the competition, Chris was invited to participate in an in-person masterclass led by experienced Broadway professionals.

  Alyssa Wong (Class of 2025) was a Roger Rees New Faces Honoree in Vocal Performance.  She attended a master class in NYC in May 2023 and upon further review of her performance, was awarded a scholarship to Norwalk Conservatory of the Arts Pre-College Intensive Summer Program.
