Great school. The talent depth is large in Oak Park so if your kid can make it, it’s a good indication of their talent. Great staff, quality program for music education and life skills.
I love that the kids get a chance to jam out together and the confidence they bring to the stage. My daughter is a vocalist and looks forward to each and every one of her lessons!
Kid-focused programming that builds individual skills in musicianship, performance, & leadership, while also introducing the real impact of teamwork and group collaboration. Great instructors who “get” the various personalities and strengths of a variety of young people.
I appreciate how teachers adjust their plan for individuals as well as the fact that students receive both a solo lesson and a group lesson.

My son is 13, is pretty introverted. He is mostly into gaming, accept when it comes to going to his lessons and rehearsals at The School of Rock. He sincerely LOVES this place and it has brought out so much personality in him. Music, being a part of a band, the teachers, is helping him come out of his shell- and express himself. I can’t wait to continue this journey and watch him have a great time in this positive environment.
The staff and the shows are great! The kids make friends and learn to get on stage and they build confidence!
I’m so glad I joined School of Rock! The camaraderie of my band mates and the non judgmental attitudes, (especially since I’m doing this for fun and this is my first time) has put me at ease and made me feel very welcome. The staff is great too and want to see me succeed. I always look forward to my band rehearsals and private voice lessons. These are the highlight of my week!

The teachers and staff here are awesome, and it’s really exciting to watch my son expand his musical interests into bands he’d probably never otherwise listen to, like the Beatles or the Cure. I’m excited to watch him grow here. He particularly loves the group rehearsals. I highly recommend this place!
Great location. Wonderful enthusiastic people! Wish my kids had it when they were young.
Collin is an amazing GM and is quick to respond to my questions. Mackenzie helps me with scheduling conflicts and is always helpful when I need to make changes. The instructions send strong feedback after each session so my boys can continue implementing tools between sessions. SOR Elmhurst is the location to choose- I won’t say which one, but I had a poor experience with another SOR. So, if you are deciding on which location to work with, I highly recommend Elmhurst!
LOVE LOVE LOVE it here. My daughter won’t stop talking about it. Great space, everyone is friendly and I love the vibe.
Wish a few teachers had a little more training in controlling kids. Some kids like to take control of the class and a couple teachers are too gentle in calling them. It effects class time for others.
