Welcome to the 2026–2027 School Year
Dear Studio Families,
Welcome to our 2026–2027 studio year!
I’m excited to begin this next chapter with you. Over the past few years, I have continued to learn, observe, and refine how I can better support each student’s musical growth and development as an independent learner.
This year, we are taking an important step forward with the new Foundation Learning Program, the Learning Journal, and a clearer learning pathway for each student.
Please take some time to review the important studio information below.
Studio Update
Learn about the vision behind this year’s changes, the new Foundation Learning Program, the Learning Journal, and our learning pathway moving forward.
Parent Handbook
Please review the updated studio policies, communication guidelines, attendance expectations, practice support, and other important information for the new school year.
Keeping a shared understanding between the teacher, student, and family helps us create a positive and productive learning environment.
Tuition & Program Information
Please review both guides below.
The 2026–2027 Tuition Guide provides an overview of the full studio structure and learning pathways.
The Current Family Tuition Guide includes the special tuition rate, annual payment option, and schedule information for current studio families.
Questions or Schedule Concerns?
Every student and family has different needs and circumstances.
As we transition into the new system, please feel free to reach out if you have questions about your child’s learning path or if the proposed Foundation class schedule creates a conflict for your family.
For some current semi-private and private students, I will also contact families individually to discuss whether an adjustment to the current learning path would better support the student’s next stage of growth.
My goal is to find the most effective learning path for each student while building the strong foundation they need for continued progress.
Thank you for your continued trust and support.
I’m looking forward to another year of learning and growth together.
