Director receives teacher grant to support Marching Band

The Alumni Association awarded its teacher grant, valued at $2,000, to Daniel Sager, the Marching Band director, for the purchase of 133 new leather binders used to protect sheet music Muncie Central instrumental groups need for their practices and performances.

The current binders were worn after more than 15 years of use.

Muncie Central teachers may apply for grants by securing an application from the associate principal, who also sends the application to faculty via email. The deadline is Dec. 1 of each year. The grants are awarded to recipients by the beginning of the start of the new semester of the following year. The grant application form also may be secured from the Alumni Association's website under "Programs we support."
