Hope Academy’s fall term classes and private lessons begin on Tuesday, September 16. Registration is now open so download the 2014-2015 Course Brochure, fill out the registration form and return it with your payment, apply for a SCHOLARSHIP or to AUDITION for HAT Co (Hope Academy Teen Theater Company), HAT Co Jr or HAT Co Rock Band.
If you are interested in registering for private music instruction, please complete the online Inquiry Form. This will help us to have a more informed conversation with you, and will expedite the process of matching your child with a teacher and finding a lesson day/time that will fit into your schedule.
NEW for 2014-2015: the addition of Tap Dance in our Musical Theater Workshop program (which also includes singing and acting); Flute Choir for advanced beginner to intermediate flutists; Beginning Ukulele Class for 7 to 10 year olds; Suzuki Piano; and a 2nd year level for our Suzuki Violin Program.
A more intensive level of Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre (PBT) dance at Hope Academy is being offered to prepare select dancers for PBT scholarship auditions in the spring; last year 5 of the 20 recipients were from Hope Academy. This Bridge Ballet 1 class is geared to more committed and focused young dancers, from 5 to 8 years old. There will be a placement session on Saturday, September 6 at 10 am, for anyone interested in this class.
HAT Co (Hope Academy Teen Theater Company) is expanding with a new level for 6th and 7th graders, called HAT Co Jr; and the opportunity for proficient musicians to be part of HAT Co Rock Band, without being required to take part in the dance and theater ensembles.
Finally, there is a new online application process for scholarships and HAT Co. You can fill in these forms online and submit them electronically.
