Why Join The Music Program

Playing music in a band or orchestra program is so much more than just a hobby. Here are a few of the biggest reasons your child should join an instrumental music program today.

  • Higher Test Scores

    According to the College Entrance Examination Board, students in a school music program scored 107 points higher on their SAT’s than students who did not participate in music. (MENC/NAfME, 2002)

  • Scholarships

    It is estimated that $46 billion is awarded in collegiate scholarships each year in the United States. College-bound student musicians become eligible for thousands of fine arts scholarships.

  • Small Class Sizes

    Our average class size for instrumental music instruction is seven students to a teacher. These small group classes help maximize each students experience.

  • Friendship

    Music creates strong bonds and camaraderie among fellow musicians. Kids who participate in instrumental music form friendships for life!

    It’s no secret, studies have repeatedly shown strong correlations between participating in school music programs and greater achievements in math and reading!

There is nothing more rewarding than teaching music. Watching students making accomplishments, seeing them grow and gaining self-confidence each week. I have had the privilege of teaching hundreds of young students over my 35 years in music education.

It’s amazing to watch students perform at concerts and see their confidence grow. Many students have commented on how much of an impact playing music has had on their lives. Some of my students have gone on to become professional musicians as well as music educators.

Lou Varuzzo, Paul Effman Music Director of Education

I really enjoy giving the students an opportunity to balance their education with music.
