This year we developed a mini-grant program with the purpose of providing grants to qualifying PMEA District 1 members who require funding for professional development, resources, equipment, or creative projects to enhance music instruction, student learning and forward the mission of PMEA.
We are pleased to announce that the following PMEA D1 members have received grants in our inaugural year:
Denise Bilott - Norwin School District - General Music ($500)
Megan Kraus - Baldwin-Whitehall School District - General Music ($500)
Galen McKinney - Brentwood Borough School District - Band ($500)
Timothy Sheridan - Greater Latrobe School District - Band ($250)
We plan to continue the mini-grant program in the 2021-2022 school year and hope that even more D1 members will take advantage of this opportunity! As a reminder, the program includes the awarding of the following:
*Four (4) $250 grants in each of the four areas - general music, vocal, orchestra, and band
*Two (2) $500 grants in each of the four areas - general music, vocal, orchestra, and band
