Instrumental Music

In cooperation with the Wharton School of Music in Berkeley Heights, The Academy of Our Lady of Peace is happy to re-introduce our instrumental music program.

We will offer small group music lessons between during lunch and recess Monday through
Friday. The cost of the lessons will be $17 per week (price may be reduced based on program
enrollment). Instrument rental is not included in lesson price.

Instruments may be rented from K&S Music in Berkeley Heights or Elefante in New Providence.

The lessons will take place as follows: (days may be added or changed based on registration)
Monday Classical Guitar (1-8) 1st grade thru 3rd grade will be separate from 4th thru 8th grade.
Tuesday Flute for grades 4-8
Wednesday Violin, Viola (1-8) 1st grade thru 3rd grade will be separate from 4th thru 8th grade

Thursday Classical Guitar (1-8) 1st grade thru 3rd grade will be separate from 4th thru 8th grade
Friday Percussion (1st thru 8th grade)

Registration will take place between October 3rd and October 7th. Lessons will begin on
Tuesday, October 11th.

Payment for a month’s worth of lessons must be paid at the beginning of each month. The check made payable to The Academy of Our Lady of Peace.

In case of absence or missed lesson money will not be refunded. If the instructor is not able to come on a given day or school is closed for some reason on the day your child has a lesson a credit will be issued on the following month’s bill.

Registration Form 2011-12

This year we are also introducing a new music program for students in grade 3 to 6 -The Academy School Band will be separate from our traditional program of music lessons that
are already offered at The Academy. The idea of the School Band is that our students will be
working towards learning their instruments well enough as a group that they will be able to
perform together at school and possibly church functions representing The Academy.
