Lockwood Memorial Prize

First awarded in 1969, this prize is given for performance in music. Also known as the "Lockwood Music Prize", it is sometimes presented at both junior and senior levels.

It is donated by the Foundation in memory of Joseph Whiteley Lockwood, a science teacher at BGS for 43 years from 1924 to 1967. He founded the school orchestra in 1924.

David Wright provided the following description in the 1969 edition of The Bostonian:

"The prize is to be awarded annually to the member of the orchestra who has, all things considered, been of most use. His improvement over the year, attendance at rehearsals, interest in the work etc. are all taken into consideration as well as his actual standard of performance, so that it is possible for a junior member of the orchestra to win the prize, and it should therefore be as much of an incentive to him as to the older boys, instead of seeming unattainable."
