Summer opportunities
One of the most important things to remember when building any skill is that consistency is key! Summer camps, ensembles, and private lessons are some of the best ways to "keep up your musical chops." If finances are a factor in deciding not to participate in summer activities, please make sure you contact Mrs. Edwards or Mr. Williams, as there are many scholarship opportunities available for pursuing summer options. Any questions? Send us an e-mail!

The best way to connect with a private instructor is to seek recommendations from others, and then to try to have a single "get to know you" lesson before deciding to set a regular schedule.
