Brad Schoener Music Fund Lesson Scholarship

The purpose of the Brad Schoener Music Fund Lesson Scholarship is to provide instrumental lessons for talented 5th through 12th grade students who might not otherwise have the opportunity for further study due to personal circumstances. The awarded student must display a passion for instrumental performance and strong commitment to practice. Scholarship aid is also determined by:

1. Music teacher referral and agreement to mentor the student
2. Classroom teacher and/or guidance counselor referral
3. Demonstration of financial need
