Settlement Music School
Thank You!
As we enter into our summer session, we want to express our deepest appreciation to all of our students and families for your enthusiastic presence at our School! This year was especially remarkable as we celebrated the 10th anniversary of our groundbreaking Music Education Pathways Program, held opening events at our vibrant Germantown Playformance Park, and marked 115 years of accessible creative arts education for all at Settlement Music School. Witnessing the boundless creativity and drive of our talented students as they achieved their goals in lessons and classes was nothing short of awe-inspiring. Thank you all for coming together in such a remarkable community and making this year an unforgettable success!

And don't forget! Open registration for new and current students is going on now. To register a student, or apply for financial aid, please schedule an appointment with one of our Branches.

As we look ahead to the 2023-2024 school year, please consider making a gift to support equitable access to high-quality arts education. Your donation will help make it possible for a child to receive the lessons they’re so looking forward to this fall. Every dollar makes a difference!
