Chapter 359 of the Modern Music Masters lTri-MJ is one of the some six hundred chap- ters in the National Honor Society. The Tri-M was established in the Chestnut Ridge High School in the fall of 1957 and chapter officers were installed in the spring of 1958 by the officers and sponsor of the Hyndman Tri-M. The requirements for membership in Tri-M are based on: Scholarship, Character, Cooperaion, Leadership, and Service. Students must be of sophomore, junior, or senior clas- sification, having been enrolled in the local music department in a performing group for at least one semester, they must have maintained for the last semester at least a UB grade in music, with at least a C average grade in academic subjectsg they must be of excellent character and should have a good attitude toward teachers and fellow students, and show cooperation and service to their class and school. The purpose of Tri-M is to foster a greater and continued interest in solo, ensemble, band, orchestral, and choral performance, to encourage better and more discriminating habits in listening to and in the performance of musical literature, to provide wider and more fre- quent opportunities for personal musical expression in the schools, churches, civic organiza- tions, and social service clubs of our community, to increase and advance the spirit of good music and musical knowledge and further the reputation of our school as a music center. The election of new officers is held every spring.
