“The exemplary award is highly selective and goes to that performer who the judges feel performed the best in that room for the day,” said Ellen Shuler, Preschool, Middle School, and Upper School music teacher. “Individuals are first nominated, and the winner is selected from the nomination list. To get nominated, and to win, are both an honor. We are so proud of all the musicians.”
