At School of Rock Woodstock, the stated mission is to offer more than just music lessons and to build a community that fosters personal growth. The program includes specific options such as the Little Wing program for ages 4–5, the Rookies program for ages 6–7, the Rock 101 program for ages 8–13, the Performance Program for ages 8–18, and the Songwriting program for ages 12 and over. In Little Wing, students use hand percussion and other tools to learn rhythm patterns and music syntax, and in Rookies, students use simplified rock instruments to learn to play music. The Songwriting program culminates with a live showcase at a local music venue, and online Songwriting Program students remotely record original songs to produce a demo. An independent study reported that 96.2% of parents saw a boost in their child’s self-confidence after joining School of Rock programs, and 95.9% of parents reported improved teamwork skills after joining programs.
