EMMA Board President, Joanne Everett, and SAHS Principal, Dr. DeArmas Graham, presented Mark with a certificate of recognition. Mark will be attending Florida State University this fall to pursue a bachelor\u2019s degree in Instrumental Music Education . In Mark\u2019s scholarship essay to EMMA, he wrote, \u201cMusic has always given me a purpose in life. It has shown me how to grow, how to care, how to learn, and how to love. I also feel that music has helped shape me into the young man that I am today. My goal in life is to become a successful music educator. However, teaching music is not the only responsibility that would go along with that. I want to become a well-rounded music educator that can serve as a model for others to follow and to leave a legacy behind in the State of Florida where students can thrive and enjoy making music with each other and can serve their communities well as mature young adults.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>EMMA gives to Murray Middle School<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_492\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-492\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS-300x206.jpg\" alt=\"EMMA gives to Murray Middle School\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS-700x480.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.stjohns.k12.fl.us\/arts\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2020\/11\/Emma-Gives-to-MMS.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left to right: Tommy Bledsoe, Joshua Bond, EMMA President Joanne Everett, School Principal Travis Brown, and K-12 Fine Arts Program Specialist Antonio Scott<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Another day, another chance to bring more music education to our schools.
