SCHOOL VISION
At RIVERROCK, we believe music can uplift the soul and that anyone can become proficient at making music if the lessons are focused and fun. The key is sticking with it and our engaging approach creates enthusiastic students who can’t wait for their next lesson. River Rock students feel the pride of playing well, feel the joy of musical collaboration, and feel the thrill of public performance. We welcome all learners, including those with special needs, as they start a life-long love of making music.
