The staff are knowledgeable and helpful. The environment is very welcoming to all. My son enjoys it.
My daughter has only been with School of Rock for a short time but we are very impressed with them! We would highly recommend SOR to anyone who has kids with an interest in music. It’s amazing how much her guitar playing and vocals has improved! SOR has boosted her confidence on many levels!

We appreciate the focus on music our kid actually WANTS to play and the individualized support he receives. The group performances are well thought-out and very inclusionary, allowing kids to stretch their wings by also doing backup instrumentation and vocals. Our son has grown tremendously in a very short time with School of Rock, both as a musician and with his personal confidence. We will continue as long as we can!
Love the talented and cool instructors. Such a good place to learn instruments.
Love these folks! Everyone is friendly and professional, and my 8-year old has FUN while learning. I’m inspired to maybe try one of the adult bands eventually. 🙂 GREAT place. 🙂 🙂
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.

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 five year old loved the school! She feels like a rock star 🙂
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.
Beware! While the program might be interesting, the Cleveland Park location is poorly run and it will bring you more headaches than benefits.
Owner contacted me about working there, was rude and inconsiderate on the phone. Very disappointing.

Best place to learn music. My daughter loves this place
My daughter has been going there for summer camps and private lessons for a couple of years and she absolutely loves it. They do their camp performances at a local brewery. How cool is that? It’s amazing how much they can teach these kids in just four days. Highly recommend for anybody looking for a great summer camp or looking to get into music. We’ve tried different places before School of Rock and we will not be going anywhere else now. Couldn’t be happier.
My son has been with SOR doing private guitar/drum lessons and Group101. He has also been involved in the the last two summer camps. He absolutely loves it and loves the fact that he’s learning to form chords already and getting to play songs he knows in a group setting.
Everyone, including the instructors, are incredibly supportive and extremely talented. I Highly recommend the programs here for the young and older. It’s not just for kids!
My son attended a week long camp at School of Rock -Ashburn this summer. I loved that he had the opportunity to try out various instruments over the course of the week
– and then display his newfound talents in the week’s ending performance.
I would definitely send him again!
I scheduled initial call with the store manager about my 6 year old kid’s guitar lessons but never received a call so I emailed her about it and she apologized and rescheduled for the following day but she again didn’t call. I called her and left a voicemail and still haven’t received any communication from them. If the store manager doesn’t care to respond to the customers that says a lot about the school.
Reached out to them multiple times and scheduled a joining date for my son. They never got back nor confirmed a teacher for classes. I also informed them about the notice period being served in prior school and then had to find some other school eventually.
Daughter did not have good experience with trial vocal lesson and left almost in tears. Maybe it’s not the right place for beginner vocalist? She said the room was very warm and it was loud with all the other lessons going on so it was not a good intro for a beginner singer.
