What Is Community Strings?

Community Strings strives to bring a high level of violin instruction to the students of Community Day Charter Public School and Community Day Care’s Latchkey Program. High expectations guide children in moving beyond learning the basics of this difficult instrument to an ability to play beautifully. Through the experience of studying violin and performing, students are able to experience the joy of making music and develop a lifelong love of music.

Students develop skills through weekly lessons, work at home, and group work. Marcia Lier, violin instructor, uses the Suzuki method of teaching and also weaves in fiddle, folk, and classical music.
