TMEA Bridge: Student Travel Grant
TMEA is proud to announce the launch of the student travel grant which is the second part of our Bridge Grant that launched earlier in the school year. The purpose of this grant is to help fund travel opportunities to the music students of TN. This grant is open to any music educator in Tennessee, regardless of their membership in TMEA, that teaches in a Title I school. TMEA would like to assist these students by offering music educators a chance to apply for a travel grant to aid their students in traveling to masterclasses, clinics, workshops, and performances. Research shows that student travel has a positive impact on student’s personal development as well as their musical development.
