1st Academy of Music

We will be offering Beginning Band and Beginning Orchestra classes for the Fall 2008 semester.  These courses are designed for the beginning student who is currently in a home school or charter school environment. 

They are meant to provide a group learning and performance opportunity that might otherwise not be available.  Primarily for ages 9 - 14, others will be considered on a case by case basis.

The semester will run for 14 weeks.  All classes will begin the week of September 1st, with Labor Day as a holiday with no classes and end on Wednesday, Dec 10th.  The Wednesday prior to Thanksgiving will also be taken as a holiday.

Instrument rentals are available.  Tuition for the 14 week class and the Band/Orchestra Method Book is a total of $250.00.

Early enrollment is encouraged to allow time for course materials to arrive……in other words….if you or someone you know is interested, you need to sign up now.  Call us at 212-8745 to enroll or get more details about the class.
