The Anne Gorman Scholarship for Choral Teaching and Theatrical Arts is a scholarship given in honor of retired choral teacher Anne Gorman. Mrs. Gorman taught at Jonathan Alder for 18 years retiring in 2017 dedicating her passion and talent to choral instruction, show choir, and the theater.
This inaugural scholarship year provided 2 ~ $300 scholarships to graduating seniors who will be pursuing a career in choral teaching or theater design, which includes stage design, lighting design, writing, sound technician, or directing.
Congratulations to Danny Rodriguez and Ryan Gutierrez, the winners of this year's scholarships.
Band and Choir Senior Scholarship
Jonathan Alder Music Boosters provide 6 ~ $500 scholarships each year to 3 Band and 3 Choir graduating seniors. Applicants submitted an application with essay to be considered for the scholarship. The applications were then judged by 3 individuals from outside the community using a scoring rubric. This year the judges were retired high school teachers from northeast Ohio in the disciplines of math, science, and choral.
