The school of rock provides a unique experience where kids can play together in a band. My 9 year old son is having a great time. He is very fond of the instructors and seems to enjoy spending time there, not to mention he is starting to Rock out. The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Jeff the manager of Gambrills. It has been a great experience so far.
High level of engagement for the kids. The live performance was great. It gave my daughter something real to be proud of and work toward. Also, exposure to various other instruments was good. Everything was done at the proper age and ability level.
Everyone is super friendly and helpful. My daughter always come out of class excited and can’t wait to go back.

Our son has had a great experience with the staff and students at School of Rock Annapolis over the last two years. He’s grown both as a musician and as a performer and is challenged in so many positive ways to stretch and get out of his comfort zone. Starting with Rock 101 and moving into the performance program has been so much fun and exposed him (and us) to some incredible music and truly talented kids! Thank you SOR Annapolis!
As a parent of four musically inclined children, I can say without a doubt that the School of Rock experience is fantastic! We have lived all over the world and we have yet to find another program that challenges its students through not only music, but performances. It builds a camaraderie amongst the students that emphasizes the creation of music as a holistic product instead of a the sum of parts you get through traditional lessons. The team building, as well as the quality of the teachers, is a combo that can’t be beat. Highly recommended!
I’m so glad that School of Rock opened near home. Taking drum lessons there has been fun and an invaluable learning experience. My drum instructor, Ryan Sadler, is brilliant!
Hayley the Keys instructor was great. We did our free trial with her and my 9 year old daughter had a great experience. So we signed up for the program.
At 9 she was placed in Rock 101. The kids were mostly younger than her, and it usually felt like glorified babysitting vs becoming a better musician.
Huge communication disconnect re:homework/expectations between the private lesson, Rock 101 and the School of Rock app causing tears that could be avoided and much frustration for parents!
We also tried one of the summer camps, signed up both kids. The fees included “Recording: campers will record their songs with camp directors so that they can share with family and friends!”.
This was not so! I emailed to follow up to receive this keepsake of their song writing, and the school did not have a file to share.

My five year old loved the school! She feels like a rock star 🙂
Our child is thrilled going to DC School of Rock. Now he wants to go every day. The attention that he gets is unbelievable. Thank you so much to Chris and his team for delivering marvelous experience for our kids. Keep up the great work!
My son is a drummer and joined to apply his years of lessons into a real band situation that the other music lesson place did not offer. He LOVES it. Staff are fantastic and he has made some great friends here too! Highly recommend.
Owner contacted me about working there, was rude and inconsiderate on the phone. Very disappointing.
Beware! While the program might be interesting, the Cleveland Park location is poorly run and it will bring you more headaches than benefits.
