Junior Student

|---|
Our outstanding faculty is anxious to help students discover their full musical potential. These caring professionals form the cornerstone of our program, and carefully guide each student through a variety of musical experiences designed to enrich young, creative and curious minds.
Students will participate in a broad spectrum of musical education through private instruction, music theory and eurhythmics, orchestra, chamber music, wind ensemble, and choir as appropriate to their age and level. In addition, students may frequently perform on the evening performance classes if so desired. Exposure to a variety of musical experiences will then help the student understand and develop those areas of interest during the coming years. A rudimentary understanding of their major instrument is necessary to take full advantage of the Center's offerings. Plan to bring polished repertoire as well as new music for further study.
Between an outstanding, caring counseling staff and being located in pristine natural surroundings, we feel your child will have ample opportunity for personal growth and creative expression. Group activities offered include hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park (supervised, of course!), swimming, horseback riding, craft projects, and visits to the nearby resort town of Estes Park. These activities foster friendships and a remarkable sense of community spirit for which Rocky Ridge has become known.
