Students interested in applying should ask their music teacher for more information.
John McLellan Fund for Music Scholarship
In 2018, Belmont said goodbye to Chenery Middle School band director John McLellan, who retired after 35 years of inspiring students to love music, work hard and achieve new “levels” of accomplishment. Under Mr. McLellan’s direction, the Chenery Middle School music department developed into one of the premier middle school music programs in the country. His legacy lives on with the John McLellan Fund for Music Scholarship, awarded to students in grades 5-8 who exhibit the qualifications of leadership, scholarship, musicianship and mentorship. Administered by POMS, these scholarships help students further their musical education through participation in camps, masterclasses and other unique musical experiences. Even though Mr. McLellan retired several years ago, Chenery alumni and community members are still welcome to donate to the fund. Email us for details.
