Mayor Chuck Cahn and the members of Township Council honored a local high school student on Monday, March 9, for her recent musical achievements.
Amelia Paulson, a sophomore at Cherry Hill High School West, received a special proclamation commending her selection to the High School Honors Performance Series, a program that gives musically elite students from across the country the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York City in late February.
Amelia was selected from among 10,000 nominees nationwide and became one of just 500 musicians to ultimately represent their schools and communities on stage at Carnegie Hall, performing with the Honors Series' Chorus, Symphonic Band and Orchestra.
We were tremendously proud to see Cherry Hill represented in this capacity by such a talented young woman, and Mayor Cahn and Council were honored to recognize her talents and achievements.
