Students thrive when they have clear goals and milestones to achieve.  One way they do this at PFMA is through our Musical Ladder testing program.  We have been using the Musical Ladder system for many years now and we love all that it offers.  Here are the top reasons we love the Musical Ladder:

1. Our students are pushed to practice their skills and work hard to pass off their test.  This encourages more practice!

2. It sets realistic goals that our students can achieve so that they can make great progress on their instrument.

3. It develops confidence in our students as they can see tangible results in their hard work.

4. It helps to celebrate the important milestones in learning music.  Each test represents a new level and also an amount of time the students have been learning in their lessons!

5. It brings lots of smiles to our happy school!  That is worth gold!

All of our students under age 18 are automatically enrolled in this wonderful program.  We love giving away certificates, wristbands, and trophies and celebrating as our students pass their tests.

Keep up the great work!  Dawn Elmer, Academy Director
