AUGUSTA – On Feb. 14, Sen. Stacy Brenner, D-Scarborough, recognized two students from Scarborough High School, Livie Richard and Adriana Ramirez, after they sang the National Anthem on the Senate Floor.

Livie and Adriana were two of nine Maine students selected to sing in the All-National Honor Ensemble Choir in Washington, D.C. in November 2022. To recognize their achievement, Sen. Brenner invited them both to the State House to have the honor of singing the National Anthem before members of the Senate. Sen. Brenner also presented each student with legislative sentiments to congratulate them on their accomplishments.

“I’m very proud that these two talented students are up-and-coming performing artists from the great state of Maine,” Brenner said on the Senate floor, “Such an accomplishment is a testament to their discipline, hard work, talent, and dedication. But, it is also a testament to their passion and love of music, which is inspiring to watch come to fruition.”

Sen. Brenner represents Maine Senate District 30, which includes Gorham and most of Scarborough.
