THE  FSMTA PRESIDENTS
COMMUNITY  SERVICE AWARD

This award is given to a 9th grade student in recognition of his/her leadership, achievements, and service to the community in the field of music during the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades.  Special emphasis is placed on service to the community, which is the essence of the award.
