Our awesome Fall Performance Season is underway! We are holding small group onsite themed rehearsals. The Performance Program involves a weekly private 45 minute instrument lesson along with a weekly small group 90 minute rehearsal. We are so excited to be offering the following Choice of Performance Groups: A Tribute to The Who, The music of REO Speedwagon Vs. Cheap Trick, and finally a nod to Heavy Metal Madness! These groups will end with both an appropriated sized Show and a Live Stream Performance the week of January 24th!

Our Rookies program is for our 6 and 7 year old Rockers and is a monthly membership program that involves a weekly 45 minute class. We see the Rookies program as our introduction to what we do at School of Rock and see kids leaving here at 8 to join in our Rock 101 and start lessons. Because at 6 and 7, kids this age generally don’t thrive in private lessons. They have issues with the fine motor control required to play the guitar, bass, drums and keys. Additionally, most kids this age want to play ALL the instruments; they don’t want to have to select one over the other and parents certainly don’t want to purchase a guitar only to find out their Rookie Rocker wants to play drums six months later...or vice versa. Rookie Rockers provides hands-on learning with guitar, bass, drums and keyboards scaled to smaller hands and vocal instruction designed for this age group. Rookies will practice ear training, come to understand song structure, learn to play rhythm patterns, play and perform in a group to experience teamwork and above all develop a love of music through inspiration and fun. These will be small group rehearsals, with kids in masks and socially distancing. If they cannot socially distance, they will be asked to leave. Rookies is offered on Saturdays at 11:00-11;45 am and Thursdays at 4:00-4:45 pm. There is an option to "try" a free class for Free provided there is openings in that class, call us at 847-915-6201 or email us to schedule. Rookies is a ongoing monthly plan at $80 a month for 4 classes a month.

We are Open for onsite lessons and small group rehearsals. We will continue to offer Remote lessons as an option as well.

We are so excited that we will be opening the week of June 22nd and moving to an opening for live in person lessons and small group rehearsals starting July 6th. We will also continue to offer Remote Lessons.

WHAT IS SCHOOL OF ROCK REMOTE LESSONS? With the kids at home for online schooling, starting or restarting instrument lesons couldnt come at a better time. These lessons are scheduled at your convenience where we can beam into your home! Take this time to learn some thing new! At School of Rock, the health and safety of our students is our top priority. That is why we have launched virtual, one-on-one music lessons. School of Rock Remote helps continue you or your child’s music education in a way that prioritizes well-being. Whether you’re unable to attend lessons in person, traveling or don’t live near a school, use School of Rock Remote to gain access to our skilled music instructors and unique teaching techniques. Last week alone, we taught over 175 lessons this way! Here is what some our parents had to say: "We love the school and so does Blake. I’m so happy a way to continue and connect is available". Ophelia LOVED today’s lesson! She was beaming. Thank you for bringing some joy and familiarity to her routine. Such strange times, it’s the efforts and kind gestures like this that will get us through it. Thank you for all you do!!!" "Sophia just completed two remote lessons and it worked out great! Love this solution" "Colin did his first remote lesson with Jerry today and it went well!" This new offering coupled with School of Rock’s proprietary Method App™, SongFirst® approach and Method Books™ culminate in a comprehensive music learning experience that is fun, educational and safe.
