I started my son Alexander who has a IEP in school and is on the spectrum (special needs) when he was 8years old playing ukelele. He since has continued playing uke and over the past 4 years has been taking lessons for piano to get ready for his next year marching band audition for Cherry Creek High School! He had held a A+in his middle school band all through 6th, 7th, and now 8th grade he's way ahead of his peers in so many areas of music. Fast forward to 2 years ago our oldest son wanted to audition and compete for first chair trumpet in his band class as a junior in high school at cherry creek high school. He felt he maxxed out with where he was at and needed that extra push and tutoring to acheive more. He asked me to sign him up for private trumpet lessons this past summer. Here we are in September of same year and after a summer of private lessons he auditioned and made FIRST CHAIR TRUMPET in his band class and for Cherry Creek Marching Band !!! (Did I mention CCHS ranked #1 for welcome week and in 5A tournament )!!! Wendy&Dale are the best ! All the instructors they hire are top notch and our invested in their students to succeed and not just in music but the why behind music , their self esteem, and technical skills that go along with it. I could t be more blessed to have found this school for my children. I have two other kids that will also play music this year. One more trumpet and one more piano or drums!!! This school has an amazing g new facility that they are in the process of moving into because they grew out of their old one ! They are so humble but I feel like if there is anyone out there that is looking for a true music school who will help their child learn music, love music appreciate music and embrace music this has to be the school they enroll in!!! Thank you CMI for all you have done and continue to do !! Congratulations on your award for National Music School of the Year!!!!!!!!

My 10 year old daughter has bed been taking singing lessons for 2 months and it has been nothing…read morebut the same song. Just practice the words was the direction she was given. No structure, no technical training as we would expect. The teacher wanted her to do a recital and the teacher would play the background music. My daughter was nervous but we built up the courage to do it. After weeks of practicing we all got dressed up and went today. Upon arrival my daughter was told her teacher did not come and she would have no support or background music. My daughter bravely stood up in front of the crowd and sang the song with complete silence / no music, which was quite heartbreaking to watch, than preceded to cry the whole way home embarrassed. To top it off she was not offered the pin that all the other teachers gave there students. I can't recommend this school. The seem more interested in the recurring revenue of tuition than developing individual talents of the students.

The LSM team has been nothing but fantastic to our family and has propelled my son to choose to…read morepursue a music degree in college. We have been with Stephan and his team for about 4 years. My son had started to play the guitar just 6 months earlier and really wanted to be part of a band. His guitar skills improved greatly and expanded his interest into bass guitar and into drums. The 1:1 lessons were fantastic. Their summer camp became a launching pad to get into a band. Since then, he has taken up song writing and now plays different instruments in the band depending on the song or the talent need. They have even performed some of their original songs! Without LMS and the nurturing they provided for our young musician, I don't know if he would have gained the confidence and developed the passion he now uses to thrive. Thank you Dillon, Stephan and the LMS team!

I took a couple of lessons there as well to get a few chops on boogie boogie piano, and Andy was great! I never felt pressured to sign up for huge packages and Andy helped me find resources to further my boogie boogie passion! I can't believe that little ole' Castle Rock has such an outstanding place for great music lessons and quality and affordable instruments! I've been a customer for more than 7 years and love that they've only grown!!! Jason (the owner) has been nothing but helpful in both my and my daughter's progression in developing a love for music. He's straight forward and won't give you the run around for anything. I'm not a fan of wishy washy or pandering, and Jason is straight-up - I always know where I stand with him, and have always felt well treated :) I wish I could give a constructive criticism, but my experience over the years with Jason and Castle Rockmusic have been great - so keep it up! :)

The lessons are OK. The instructors are hit and miss.

One didn't even seem interested, was just getting through the hour. The web site is deceptive. For instance, #5 of the "12 benefits" says "A comfortable waiting room for parents" and has a photo of a large room with big windows and leather couches, giving the impression that the photo is the waiting room. It is not. In fact, the room pictured is not anywhere at their facility. I don't know where it is but it's not at Parker Music Academy. On the web site, the photo by #3 and #6 shows a lovely outdoor amphitheater with people playing instruments. This photo is also not anywhere at Parker Music Academy. Maybe they posed some students in another town? I'm not sure. But, their actual facility is an old house that has been converted. The "waiting room" is a VERY small foyer with an old, broken-down sofa. Looks like the front room in your weird 70 year old aunt's house. The facilities are totally misrepresented on the web site. Their waiting room is not large or comfortable by any means. If more than 3 or 4 parents are waiting, someone must stand. As far as the 5 acres of space, maybe they own 5 acres but all I've ever seen was the old house and a gravel driveway with mud holes. There is no space for playing music outdoors. As far as the "Observation windows" talked about in #5, I don't know what they're talking about. When I read that, I thought there would be windows from the waiting room into the lesson rooms so waiting parents could watch. No such thing. The lesson rooms are small rooms with regular house windows to outdoors. I suppose one could walk around the outside of the house in the weeds and look into the rooms like a peeping-Tom, but I've never seen anyone do that. The photos on the web site by #2 (indoor) and #7 and #12 (outdoor) are also not anywhere near their facility. They were taken somewhere else, somewhere much nicer than their facility. If they are going to post photos on a web site that brags about their facilities, the photos should actually show the facilities rather than some other, random location. The web site also says "Conveniently located" in Parker and "Central location." Well, not exactly. They're quite a ways out a gravel road, not anywhere near the center of town. To be fair, the location is not terrible. It doesn't take long to get there. But, it's not as if it's on Main St. or Parker Rd. or any other paved road in town. In summary, the lessons are OK. They do offer many days/times to fit just about any schedule. But, their web site does NOT give an accurate impression of their facilities, not even close.

School of Rock Highlands Ranch is one of those gems, and we are so grateful to be part of this amazing community. From the moment you walk in the door, you can feel the difference. Andy, Holly, and the entire staff are phenomenal people--kind, caring, and genuinely invested in every student's journey. Every child is greeted by name, every parent feels welcome, and you immediately know you're in a safe, comfortable space where people matter. It's not just a music school--it's a community. Our daughter is thriving in the Rookies group class, where she's not only learning music but also growing in confidence and teamwork. On top of that, my wife and I are part of the Adult Performance Program, and it has been an absolute blast. Playing music together, laughing, and sharing the stage has been one of the most fun and rewarding experiences of our adult lives. The quality of instruction here is second to none. The teachers are talented, knowledgeable, and--most importantly--relatable. They know how to connect with kids and adults alike, making lessons inspiring and fun while still challenging students to grow. The vibe is electric--you can't help but feel motivated and excited to learn when you're here. It's hard to put into words just how much this place means to us. School of Rock Highlands Ranch is more than a school; it's a place where you will be seen, valued, and encouraged. Whether you're just starting your musical journey or looking for a place to keep growing, look no further. You'll learn, you'll be challenged, and most of all--you'll have a ton of fun. We wholeheartedly recommend School of Rock Highlands Ranch to anyone who wants music to become a joyful, life-changing part of their story.
