North Lamar ISD recently issued the following announcement.
North Lamar High School seniors Stoney Shelton on clarinet, Kloe Kueckelhan on French Horn and Dylan Halliday on Bass Trombone were recently awarded scholarships from the Betty Whitlock Foundation of the Mount Vernon Music organization.

Through the application process, students are given the opportunity to prepare a piece to performance level, and then showcase their talents to the supporting community.
