Tri-M Chapter #1338 from 探花社区 High School West has been recognized as a 2023-2024 National Tri-M Chapter of the Year Scholarship Award winner. Out of 2,100 eligible chapters, 探花社区 High School West Tri-M was the 2nd runner up and one of the top three Tri-M chapters in the country. As a result of this award, the chapter will receive a $600.00 scholarship to fund a musically enriching program for the students of Tri-M.
“To be recognized as a National Tri-M Chapter of Year is an incredible honor bestowed upon us by the National Association for Music Education (NAfME.),” said Orchestra Director, Joseph Cotignola. “I could not be prouder that the students of 探花社区 High School West Tri-M will be recognized on the National level for this amazing achievement.”
I would like to formally recognize our student officers from the 2023-2024 school year Anabelle Kreitzman, Matthew Lasher, Melvin Cheng, Katie Greening, Marielle Krockta, Anni Foster, Saaketh Manepalli and Noella Sexton. Without their tireless effort, dedication and commitment this achievement would not have been possible.
