"The aim and final end of music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul."

~Johann Sebastian Bach

Curricular Goals by Level:

• Primary (Grades K-2):  Students are taught basic singing, rhythmic and notation skills.  The main goal is to nurture pre-staff literacy so that they are ready to make the step toward reading vocal and instrumental music.
• Intermediate (Grades 3-5): Students build on the melodic and rhythmic principles of music.  Our primary focus is on staff literacy.
• Middle School (Grades 6-8):  Students continue to nurture their melodic, harmonic and analytical skills through hands-on ukulele, guitar and composition units.
