Something’s Different…
Little School of Music is open and we’ve made some changes around the school. We have a new display in the lobby so we can showcase our amazing students, post upcoming dates, and keep you better informed of what’s going on!
Thank you to Berto for helping us keep things in working order and especially for the fresh coat of paint! Everything is sparkling and fresh thanks to him. We appreciate you Berto!
Music for Little Mozarts Classes
Our popular Music for Little Mozarts Classes for beginning children 5-6 years old are starting up in just a few weeks! Level 1 still has a few spots available so please talk to Roxanne at the front for more class details.
New Music Programs to Better Serve Students
We have also been hard at work preparing for what’s coming this fall! Little School of Music is adapting our program offerings to better serve the needs of our music students.
You’ll want to tell all our friends about it!
Hooray for Auto-Pay!
We are very excited to let you know we are moving to auto-pay through a new processor with no convenience fee! Using a bank card/account is preferred since LSM is charged for each transaction. (This would really help us out!)
We’d like to have everyone switched to auto-pay by October 1st.
All you need to do is make your next payment using the online payment form linked below and we’ll set up the rest from there.
Leadership Program
Knowledge is our Leadership principle for the month of August. Check out our website post and Youtube video here: Leadership Program - KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge grows exponentially. The more we know, the greater our ability to learn, and the faster we expand out knowledge base.
Online Virtual Lessons
The majority of our lessons take place in-person, however we still have some online lessons for students out of state, who do not have transportation, who may become a little sick and prefer to stay home for their lesson, and for our recorded lessons.
To maximize your online virtual lesson experience, please be sure to use a computer (best), or a tablet so you can enable original sound for musicians. This is a critical setting that will disable noise suppression allowing your teacher to hear your instrument more clearly.
By default, Zoom is set to eliminate background noise, (including music) to have clearer voice audio. This is a problem for music lessons, so this is very important! Simply turn on the original sound and you are good to go.
