York, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Louisiana.  

Locals schools represented include:  Academy of Mount St. Ursula (Bronx), Preston High School (Bronx), Convent of Sacred Heart (Greenwich, CT), and The Ursuline School (New Rochelle), as well as local high schools in New Rochelle, Pelham, Mt. Vernon, Scarsdale, Edgemont, and Mamaroneck.
