Hello everyone!

I hope all of you are having a great summer!

If any of you have any younger siblings or know of anyone transitioning into middle school as a 6th grade student, and they really want to fully commit to learning how to play one of the 4 string instruments (Violin, Viola, Cello, or Double Bass), then please either let me know or get in touch with the counselor at JCMS for 6th grade this upcoming school year.

It’s not too late to sign-up for the Beginning Orchestra Upper Strings or Lower Strings class!

I apologize for not having a picture of my very first class I taught when in my first year at JCMS in the school year of 2021-2022.

I was able to teach them from 7th grade to 8th grade. They are now wrapping up their junior year of high school. They all have become great musicians and students. Class of 2027! 🎻❤️🎼
