STUDENT SPOTLIGHT

BE A MUSICAL LADDER CHAMP!

Every 3-6 months, students have achievement tests with their teachers and if they pass they get really cool colored bracelets, certificates, and at certain levels, trophies – customized to our music school. It’s a great way to monitor your student’s progress in lessons to see how they’re doing. The Musical Ladder System is creating a big buzz at The Jenison Academy of Music!

As part of the Musical Ladder System, we encourage students to keep practicing so they hit those mile markers! Every time your student fills out a practice sheet, they get a Practice Champ bracelet and a spin on the wheel. Collect all 6 bracelets to get an extra trophy!
