MMPA Student Financial Awards
The Masconomet Music Parent Association provides financial awards at the end of the school year to outstanding graduating seniors who have demonstrated a commitment to the Masconomet music program and a dedication to their musical education. The MMPA awards are intended to encourage students to participate in the Masconomet music program; take advantage of all that the music program provides to students; and develop a passion for music that will last a lifetime. These awards may be used to help pay tuition in pursuing additional studies in music through private lessons, music courses and programs or college and conservatory level music studies.
The following eligibility requirements are necessary for all students applying for an award:
1. Enrollment in at least one Masconomet music group, instrumental or vocal, during the student’s academic years at Masconomet, and active enrollment in a music department program during senior year;
2. Demonstrated leadership and/or mentoring of younger musicians;
3. Active Participation in MMPA fundraising events;
4. Active family participation in at least one MMPA fundraising event or activity;
5. Masco Music Faculty recommendation;
6. Participation in non-mandatory music department events and performances is strongly encouraged.
Student attitude, degree of participation in the music program, and commitment to advancing his/her musical education will also be considered. An Awards Committee comprised of community members familiar with the Masconomet Music Program, and who do not have a student currently enrolled in the Masco Music Program, evaluate each award application via a blind application process. To assure the anonymity of each applicant, names are deleted from each application prior to the committee’s review.
