This summer 3 Music students from NCCS participated in the 65th annual Mid-America Music Association, Inc. music festival. Each student performed at the superior level and earned a trophy. Students were required to play two contrasting musical pieces on their instruments. 5th grade violinist Jillian Lowe, 4th grade pianist Annie Springer, and 3rd grade pianist Isaac Ford performed in front of judges during this event. Over 1100 students from several mid-western states participated in the festival that was held at the Lambert Airport Marriott July 28-31. Students could be scored with a Very Good, Excellent, and Superior (95/100), only students scoring in the superior received trophies. Each participant is a current student of NCCS's music teacher, Mrs. Christina Springer. Springer is thrilled that all three students performed at such a professional level. We are so proud of our students and grateful for opportunities like this for them to continue to grow!
