The Harris Family Music Scholarship, made possible through the generous $10,000 donation from the Harris family in 2024, provides financial assistance to students wishing to pursue private music lessons-an invaluable opportunity to grow as a musician. Up to three recipients will be selected from the Centennial High School band, orchestra, and choir programs. The recipient(s) will receive a package of 4-6 private lessons to be used in-person with a private instructor of their choice.

Funds will be distributed directly to the student's private music instructor and must be used for lesson fees only. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate both financial need and a commitment to their musical development. For application information, click the link below:
