The Preucil School of Music believes that:

Music is life training, important to all children regardless of economic status.
…All children can develop their abilities in music to a higher level through the “mother tongue” approach of Dr. Suzuki.

The Preucil School of Music strives to:

…Provide excellent instruction to all ages in a nurturing environment.
…Offer financial aid to needy students.
…Create a rich musical environment in the home and community.
The Preucil School of Music is a member of the National Guild of Community Schools of the Arts and the Suzuki Association of the Americas.

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
