This past year presented some of the most difficult challenges that we’ve ever faced. This was a learning experience for all of us but through adversity, we regained our footing and streamlined our process while continuing to find ways to innovate by using technological resources to maintain a high-quality teaching program.
Our teachers and students alike worked hard and adapted, while parents gave our students the proper support system they needed as we navigated the year. Miss Wendy and the team at Fortissimo Yamaha Music School made sure that safety was a priority, as well as provided materials and the structure that we needed to create a successful environment.
Thank you to everyone for attending the 2022 Fall semester Recital!
