Four Los Alamos High School seniors have been awarded scholarships from the Los Alamos Symphony Orchestra.
Judy Lee and Chip Mielke each received $300 and Kristen Haertling and Maria McTeigue each received $200.
The LASO awards are presented to seniors who have demonstrated outstanding musical achievement and who plan to continue musical pursuits, regardless of what he or she does in the future.
Mielke is a violinist and Lee plays violin and viola. Both play in the LAHS top orchestra and have played with the Los Alamos Symphony Orchestra on numerous occasions and will be greatly missed next year. Haertling also is a violinist and has been active in the LAHS top orchestra. McTeigue is a flautest and has been the lead drum major for the LAHS Topper Marching Band this year.
