NOVEMBER ANNOUNCEMENTS

Studio Closed
There will be no lessons on Wed-Fri this week, Nov 6-8 for teachers conference. I will be performing in Jacksonville. I will get with you about making that up. Monday and Tuesday students have a regular schedule.

Tuition Payment

Just a reminder that November Tuition is due. You can pay by cash, check, paypal, or debit/credit card. A $10 late fee is added after the 7th of the month.

Monthly Recordings

I will be recording students on their best song as of late. We had great success with this in October. Can't wait to hear them "bring it" in November. Here is the link you will need to view their videos and to share with family and friends: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLp-LjfDQfjSxkcPb56_VfQ/videos

OCTOBER STUDENT OF THE MONTH

Kenzie Ricardy

Kenzie is a 7th grader who is in her second year with me. She has had a fantastic start to this school year. She has taken off in her new Lesson Book and is doing well with her Christmas music. She recently has learned tonic (I) and dominant (V7). Her favorite song lately has been Shadows. Best of all, she is smiling each week and having a great attitude.
