Parrott Music Scholarship

A special scholarship program is available at The Presbyterian Church for students involved in the music program at Pittsburg State University and become involved with the music program at our church. The generous donors making this possible were William G. and Pauline Parrott, thus the name called Parrott Scholarship.

The purpose of the Parrott Foundation Scholarship program is to assist students in obtaining music education at Pittsburg State University and assist the Presbyterian Church music program. Over the years many talented college students have participated singing in the church choir while being assisted with a music scholarship. Recipients are recommended by the Department of Music at Pittsburg State University. Financial need is not a determining factor. Grade point average is not a determining factor. Interested students can contact The Presbyterian Church Director of Music.
