School of Rock has made an incredible impact on my son, and he's only 8. Watching him discover his talent on the drums has been such a joy! Even more, it benefits him outside the classroom - working with others, building confidence, providing an outlet, work ethic, patience, independence, creativity and on and on... Everyone there is wonderful and the bond he shares with his drum teacher, Kevin March, is so so special ?

My daughter is a vocal student at School of Rock, and she is loving it. I actually can't believe the improvement we hear. She was doing one on one lessons, and has now joined the performance group. It has boosted her confidence tremendously. We can't wait to see the show!

Our daughter is thriving in her School of Rock classes. Her keyboard teacher Micaela is engaging and listens to our daughter’s concerns. She communicates what is done at every lesson and leaves explicit instructions on what is to be practiced. The group classes have exposed our daughter to all different genres of music. The manager Cory is amazing - she gets back to us promptly with answers to all of our questions, and is delightful to speak with at drop off and pick up.

I like how invested everyone is in the goals of the program. I especially like that staff has always met the kids where they are musically and emotionally - it's not easy dealing with kids from 7 to 17! My son has found his tribe and his passion at Montclair School of Rock.We love Phil (our primary instructor) for opening up a world of possibilities to our young keyboardist. He also has lots of time for me as a parent to give advice on how to support our son with equipment or getting the most out of the music program in our school to augment what is happening at SoR.I really have to be hats off to how Kevin and Cory set the tone. It's a loving, supportive and fun place. There are rules to follow (of course) but there is a pragmatism and kid-centric mentality that guides all decisions.

This place is truly a gem. The methods and approach are fantastic, every teacher is skilled and wonderful and the staff is attentive, organized and super communicative. I love that my child gets exposed to many instruments in the group lesson (Rock 101 - no brainer to add this on top of the 1x/week lesson plan) and the opportunity to participate like she would in a band setting. School of Rock has given my daughter a platform to find her skills, hone them in and a sense of confidence that she didn't have before. Kevin, the manager/director is incredibly professional and runs the place with compassion. I also have to say, there is a super wide range/diversity of kids which adds to the importance to the staff's training and approach. I have personally witnessed several different staff members find grace/patience and attentiveness to meet different students needs which further brings home that this place is special and a safe haven for my child. Thank you, School of Rock - you rock. :)

I am 37 year old self taught (terribly self taught at that) drummer. Who thought he had it down. I was asked what would I like to learn? I said teach me from the ground up. I was humbled to learn everything I was doing wasn't just right. Within a matter of weeks my stick control, and fundamentals of drumming had greatly improved. The teachers are super patient and talented and helped me spark that interest in drumming again!

The Montclair School of Rock has been the greatest experience for my children . The staff members are the best ! The performance programs teach them so much and are always teaching something new ! The students are encouraged and taught to be well rounded musicians !
