Jordan Penrose, a senior at United High School in Monmouth, IL, has been a Tri-M chapter member since 9th grade and is currently its president. At first she was just excited to be among people who shared her love of music. But now she sees the impact of having a chapter in broader terms. “Tri-M means a society of people who want to make the world better with music.”
