Students are returning to the piano lab this year. Many changes have been made to make the room safe for students to return. Details are available in the Fall 2020 edition of Music Notes (under the “News” link at jgmusic.weebly.com). Remote learners can take piano lessons as well. Access to a piano or keyboard is needed. (Keyboards are available for a reasonable price through B & J Music and other reputable music stores. Suggested models can be found in the Keyboard Purchase Options file at the above site.) Remote students can participate via live stream lessons with their class during regular school hours or via recorded video lessons if they are not able to attend during regular school hours. More information on signing up for remote lessons will be available soon.
Early childhood and Preschool were bubbling with excitement for our first day back to school!
