Congratulations Nigel Lassiter '14: The 2013 E'wood Idol!

Here's to D-E's own Nigel Lassiter '14 who was recognized as the 2013 Englewood Idol (www.englewoodidol.com)-- and our "Fab Five" Dance Crew winners!! A big applause also goes to to Gina Marie Enriquez '14 who earned the title of 2nd Runner Up! We are so proud of ALL of our students who participated in last night's event as vocalists, emcees, and dancers.

On the evening of Thursday, January 17, the bergenPAC (www.bergenpac.org) once again hosted the annual Englewood Idol 2013! The annual event, which features students from Dwight-Englewood as well as other local high schools, is an incredible showcase of talent performing for a great cause. All event proceeds support the Dr. John Greico Scholarship Fund.

 

This year two D-E seniors, Alex De Los Reyes ‘13 and Kylah Gonzalez ‘13, hosted the event. In addition to Lassiter and Enriquez, Melissa Rosner '15 also competed as a vocalist;  A comical video made by Avery Singer ’13 and students from Dwight Morrow was featured at the show; and two other D-E dance crews also competed (see below).

 

This is the third year in a row that a D-E student has earned the coveted Englewood Idol title.  The Englewood Idol 2012 winner, alumnus Brian Park '12 , now attends the Manhattan School of Music and recently performed in the bergenPAC for "Beyond the Storm" - a Hurricane Sandy relief event.   The Englewood Idol 2011 winner, D-E alumna Erica Butler '11 now attends George Washington University, and within her freshman year at GWU she was selected as part of a group of students to sing at the White House.
