Grant, head choir director at Adams Middle School, earned the Young Director of Distinction Award which is presented annually to an outstanding choral director with fewer than six years of teaching experience.

Fry, head choir director at Medlin Middle School, earned the Choral Director of Distinction Award which is presented annually to an outstanding veteran choir director.

“Northwest ISD and the NISD Fine Arts Department are very proud of these top educators and very appreciative of their dedication and devotion to the students of Northwest ISD,” said NISD Executive Director of Fine Arts Kevin Lacefield. “Congratulations Ashley and Emily!”
