We believe that the best way to teach most anything, and especially music, is with a hands on approach. Therefore, our entire school is dedicated to getting kids playing music in an as authentic way as possible. Our teachers are all real working rock musicians, and as such are able to relate to the students in a very direct way, offering valuable advice and guidance in the field. The shows we stage are not just recitals for family and friends but rather aspire to be real rock shows at real rock venues, with professional sound and, when appropriate, smoke machines. The Rock Academy is a year round tuition based program. Students take a weekly 45 minute lesson in their primary instrument and attend weekly rehearsals when in season (roughly 30 weeks per year) in preparation for our seasonal shows. Shows are chosen for their artistic and pedagogical merit and a variety is always offered to best serve the various skill levels and educational needs of our student body. When we reach capacity we will be staging 5 productions in the Spring and Fall semesters and 3-4 in the summer, with rehearsals for these shows occurring on both week days and weekends to accommodate the schedules of our students." ======================== ABOUT MY FRIENDS PLACE ======================== "Our Mission: My Friend’s Place assists and inspires homeless youth to build self-sufficient lives. Our History: In 1988, Steve LePore and Craig Scholz initiated a volunteer-led, mobile meal program to distribute sack lunches to the homeless youth in the Hollywood community. Soon the volunteers built trust with the young people and realized that youth are driven to the streets by abuse, abandonment and neglect by families and caregivers. The needs and challenges of homeless youth go well beyond the critical condition of hunger. Two years later, the volunteer group first opened the doors of a facility they called My Friend’s Place where they began to offer social services and creative opportunities in addition to basic needs. Today, My Friend’s Place is a thriving, professionally staffed drop-in Resource Center serving over 1,400 homeless youth ages 12 to 25 and their children each year. Our primary goal is to lower traditional barriers to service and provide homeless youth with the opportunity to improve their psychological, intellectual and physical capacity to reach their potential." ======================== ABOUT THE PARAMOUNT ACADEMY OF MUSIC ======================== "Paramount Academy of Music is an independently owned forward thinking music school. Our school is brand new, our concepts are brand new, but we have much musical experience to build upon. We are striving to build a community of aspiring young musicians from the ages of 10-18. We are dedicated to creating a positive learning environment while offering a high-quality and diversified music education. We are in the pursuit of offering a first rate music education to the community, top quality customer service and we value appropriate employee contributions to make the school become the finest school possible. We offer all the skills necessary to build a lifetime enjoyment of music, as well as the basis for a professional career. We keep with the idea of forward thinking music education, offering a wide variety of experiences for the students to absorb and enjoy! We are also creating a warm and friendly place for students to drop their musical roots and grow into the musicians they would like to be. We intend on helping them with their musical vision, making their dreams become realities."
