Two Bergen County Students to Receive Performing Arts Scholarships

Bergen County

Kayla Pringle of Suffern, New York, and Leah Sanchez of Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, have received this year's Angels in the Arts Scholarships.

Both winners are members of the Class of 2020 at the Academy of the Holy Angels in Demarest.

Officials say Pringle is a cellist and vocalist who has been involved in the Yale Global Scholars program, the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Conference, and AngelBots (AHA's robotics team).

She will attend Northeastern this fall.

Sanchez is a trumpet player, stage crew manager, and vocalist who has sung with an international honors choir at Carnegie Hall.

She has also been named to Bergen County's All-County Band & Choir Concert. She is bound for Penn State.

AITA's video tribute includes an outpouring of gratitude to all of the Holy Angels seniors who have lent their talents to the Academy's performing arts programs.
