Registration for the 2024-2025 school year opens at 12:00am, May 1st! This year, we are greatly expanding our beginner class offerings, with a focus on our Level A Strings classes. We will offer 10 Level A Violin classes throughout our program days. In a change from previous years, these classes will be offered during both mornings and afternoons with start times ranging from 9:00 am to 2:15 pm. We will add one additional section for our youngest students (4.5/5-year-olds), two additional sections for 5/6-year-olds, and one additional section for 6/7-year-olds. For lower strings, we will also offer 4 classes for both Viola and Cello students. These 2 instruments will similarly have both morning and afternoon class times.
Beyond our string offerings, we will also offer beginner classes for all woodwind and brass instruments. For the most popular instruments of these 2 families (flute and trumpet), we will add an additional class section.
