The Bridgehampton School was named the K-8 Grand Prize winner in the Rural Schools Association of New York State student video contest.

There were a total of 712 entries throughout the state in the competition that students worked together with a faculty member to highlight the power of what makes their school community unique.

The Elementary School Student Council headed by teacher Hamra Ozsu as well as teacher Lou Liberatore and guidance counselor Ryan Barker were instrumental in coordinating the video. Class president Indy Cherry narrates the production.

The school was honored with a $1,000 prize that will go to the Student Council to “continue to build leadership and culturally responsive schoolwide programs,” Ms. Ozsu said.

The high school received second place honors in the grades 9-12 category and a check for $250.
