ROCKWALL, TX (May 23, 2022) The Rockwall Music Teachers Association is now accepting applications for the Glynda King Music Education Scholarship.
Scholarships will be awarded to deserving students who demonstrate excellence and accomplishment in their piano studies, high academic achievement, and ongoing service within their church and Rockwall community. Scholarships are awarded in denominations from $25-$500. There is no age requirement to apply for a scholarship.
Glynda King’s family established the scholarship with the RMTA to honor Glynda’s memory and to continue her legacy of music education. Glynda passed away in August 2021, following a hard-fought battle with cancer. As a music teacher, Glynda positively impacted the lives of many students. She was a gifted accompanist who shared her talents throughout the Rockwall community and in weekly services at Lakepointe Church. She was an active member of Bible Study Fellowship International and the RMTA.
Scholarship applications will be accepted through June 23, 2022.
