FSMTA Competitive Events
Each May, FSMTA offers a range of State Competitive Events designed to provide significant educational experiences for students and teachers. These events, held annually, are a platform where pre-college age students can participate in live competitions, while college-level applicants have the chance to submit their video auditions for consideration. All winners of these competitions and their teachers are recognized in the FSMTA newsletter, on the FSMTA website and social media. First Prize winners receive monetary awards presented by the FSMTF.
- A list of all available Awards and Scholarships is available for viewing and downloading.
