It\u2019s not only high school athletes who sign letters to play at the college level. This week, five Mount Pleasant High School Goin\u2019 Gold Band members signed scholarship letters to attend the University of Arkansas at Monticello Music Program. The scholarship total for the five? $148,000.<\/p>\n

Signing scholarship letters were Fabian Fernandez-trombone, Juan Garcia-piano, Alicengrace Gray-trumpet, Anthony Martinez-clarinet and color guard, and Javier Martinez-baritone.\u00a0 Professor Lester Pack, UofA Director of Bands, and Professor Gary Meggs, Jazz Band Director, made the trip form Monticello to be present at the scholarship signings.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am so proud of these students and what they have accomplished here at MPHS,\u201d said MPHS Band Director Dr. Theodus Luckett. \u201cThey have all contributed to the success of the Goin\u2019 Gold Band and we will miss them. I congratulate them on earning scholarships to the University of Arkansas-Monticello. I know they will all be successful in their college careers.\u201d<\/p>\n
