Damuth Scholarship

When Elizabeth and I went to our first Northwest Catholic Event, we picked up several informational flyers, including one that had information about a music scholarship.  The scholarship required a written application, an audition and a recommendation from a music teacher.  After some hemming and hawing, as well as a few nudges from her school music director, Elizabeth decided to apply. She auditioned in early February and when she was there, saw many of the same students she sees at all All State every year.  In fact, her music teacher told us that more than 50 incoming freshman auditioned for the scholarship, and every instrumental musician is part of the current All State program.  On Tuesday, Elizabeth learned that she was awarded the Damuth Scholarship, a four year music scholarship that is awarded to ONE member of each class at NWC.  I have to say, she was very excited, as was her music teacher!  The scholarship comes with a lot of requirements - certain music ensembles, music theory classes, minimum overall and course specific GPA - but she is up for the challenge.  We are so proud of her hard work!!
