In presenting this award to Scott last night, PACE (Performing Arts Curriculum Experience) Dance Teacher Allison Parsley said, "Scott is an actor. He is a singer, and he is a dancer. Each of Scott's performances in these areas are strong, engaging and are the result of intense work both in and out of the rehearsal room" About the Rockefeller Awards: The Mamaroneck High School Fund for the Fine and Performing Arts was established in April, 1982, with the receipt of a $10,000 award for excellence in arts education from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. In giving this award, Mr. David Rockefeller, Jr. cited Mamaroneck's Fine Arts Department and PACE program for 'outstanding instruction, significant student achievement, and broad administrative and community understanding and support.' Interest from the Fund is used each year to award scholarships to students for outstanding arts achievement.
