Scholarship and Financial Assistance
The EGR Music Boosters supports the continuing education of students outside of the classroom in our music through two programs - Outstanding Senior Musician Scholarship Award and Continuing Music Education Financial Assistance. Information about each of the programs can be found below.
Outstanding Senior Musician scholarship Award
Each year, a scholarship is awarded to one student in each of the three music programs - band, choir, and orchestra. Those students graduating in the spring that have been enrolled in music at EGRPS for all four years of high school are eligible to apply for these scholarships.
Students interest in applying for this award in 2024 can review the application from 2023 and look for an updated version in January of 2024. The deadline for 2024 applications will be in March, 2024. The 2023 application can found here.
continuing music education financial assistance
The EGR Music Boosters encourages all music students to continue their music education through opportunities outside of school. This might be through summer music camps, private instruction, or other similar programs. Applications are due in April of each year. Current 6th-11th grade music students planning to enroll in music in fall of the following year that are interested in receiving financial support for participation in these type of programs will be given the opportunity to submit an application in early May. These funds are not applicable for summer band camp. In addition, students must have generated at least $25 in sales or donations through the ham sale fundraiser to be eligible for these funds. The amount of the assistance is dependent on the number of applicants. If qualified, you will receive an email acknowledgement with the amount awarded, and further instructions for accepting your award. Funds received must be used by December 15 of the year in wihch they are awarded.
