Tri-M
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tri-M, or Modern Music Masters, is a high school music honor society. Each school has its own chapter, which is run by the students but supervised by an advisor or sponsor, usually a school teacher. There are approximately 4,500 participating chapters in several countries.
Tri-M was founded in 1936 by Alexander Harley and his wife, Frances. At the time, Alexander Harley was the band director at Maine East High School in Park Ridge, Illinois. It has been a program of The National Association for Music Education since 1983.
