Preucil School of Music

Giving

Suzuki training is life training.

Mission Statement
The Preucil School of Music is dedicated to the development of ability in all children. We teach according to the philosophy of Shinichi Suzuki, who has proven that particular talents are not inborn, and that all children can develop their abilities in music and other areas to a high level if they learn in the manner that they learned to speak their “mother tongue.”

The Preucil School offers excellence in early childhood education and music for students of all ages in a caring, nurturing environment. It helps parents and children to share in the learning process, serves as a center for involvement in varied early childhood and musical activities, and attempts to create a rich musical and educational environment in the community.

The Preucil School believes music training is life training, of equal importance to all children regardless of economic status. It aims to keep tuition affordable, and offers aid to those students in need of assistance who demonstrate a desire to learn.

Sustaining excellence.

The Preucil School of Music offers excellence in instruction for students of all ages, and creative early childhood instruction in a caring, nurturing environment. It is more than a place to learn to play an instrument: it is a special place where young people learn important values, make lifelong friendships and flourish as musicians.

Your gifts make it possible for the school to sustain its efforts to:
· Maintain a quality music curriculum grounded in the philosophy of Shinichi Suzuki, for string, piano and voice students.
· Provide financial aid to students who could not otherwise afford private lessons.
· Offer an early childhood education program through which youngsters can develop an excitement for learning, and experience the richness of music for the first time.
· Attract and retain quality faculty who bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to each and every student they teach.

Tuition alone cannot support sustained excellence or financial security. That is why your contribution is important to the school as it moves into perpetuity.

“The greatest joy an adult can know is the privilege of developing a child’s potential in a way that enables that child to express all that is harmonious and best in human beings."
-S. Suzuki
