What is Tri-M?
According to NAfME, "The Tri-M Music Honor Society® is a program of NAfME which focuses on creating future leaders in music education and music advocacy. Tri-M® is the only national honor society for student musicians in grades 6-12. There are more than 1,800 chapters across all 50 states, involving more than 75,000 students. Each year, these students contribute more than 750,000 service hours to their schools and local communities, and raise nearly $1 million for causes they care about. NAfME awards more than $2,000 in scholarships each year to chapters that demonstrate exceptional service and leadership."
The 3 M's of this honor society are Modern, Music, and Masters. Members take both music and the society itself very seriously; Tri-M is for musicians who plan on taking their musicianship to the next level!
Why join Tri-M?
Being a Tri-M member not only looks great on college applications, but it's fun, too! With service activities revolving around music, members participate in enriching activities while doing something they love, benefiting the school's music programs, and not to mention meeting and creating with their fellow peers as well.
What are the requirements to join Tri-M?
Tri-M is an Honor Society, so students are held to a high standard. Students looking to apply to be in the Society must be a sophomore, junior or senior in Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Chorale, Women's Chorale, Chamber Choir, or AP Music Theory with a grade of an 93 or higher. To ensure that the Society's members' musical involvement transcends the classroom, they must also participate in at least one (1) musical extracurricular activity.
