ASTA/NSOA STUDENT CHAPTER NEWS:
In the spring, your child will be getting their certificate for this year stating that they had become an active student member of the American String Teacher Association/National School Orchestra Association group. They must have a 3.0 Academic grade point average as well as be involved in all aspects of the school Orchestra program (auditioning, solo and ensemble, fundraising, etc.) to be a member. This looks very nice on college applications! All names were sent into the National office and are posted in the Orchestra Room.
