The Mt. Carmel Jr. High Music department has been awarded The Peter R. Marsh Foundation grant for the 2nd year in a row! According to the foundation, "the purpose of the Middle School Music Grant is to provide a remarkable venue and experience for students where their emotional senses are awakened and they are inspired to advance musically, scholastically and socially." This grant is to encourage middle school music students to perform for and interact with our senior citizens. Our band & choir students really enjoy performing at the area nursing homes & assisted living facilities and visiting the residents afterwards so being awarded this grant is a win-win situation according to director, Ellen Wall. The money from this grant will help buy new school instruments and music.
