| REGISTRATION
& ADMISSIONS: |
| · Registration of new
students takes place continuously throughout the year. However,
we do recommend early registration in June in order to increase your
chances of obtaining the most convenient schedule for the upcoming
school year. Starting music
classes along with the beginning of the school year will also make it
easier for students to develop practicing routines at home, which in
turn will help them achieve the ultimate educational results and
adequately prepare them for our school's annual concerts and recitals. |
