Toddler Tunes (ongoing) Start anytime!

Age Range: 18 mo – 3 years
Course Length: 4 weeks
30 mins each.

The Toddler Tunes program provides a strong basis for future musical involvement.

Tots learn through experiencing melodic, rhythmic, and harmonic concepts in their singing, activity songs, movement and rhythm activities, finger plays, and active keyboard games.

Because toddlers are learning music naturally – much as they learn language – the opportunity to repeat patterning (melody and rhythm) is critical. Recent brain research has shown that children who feel a steady pulse are much more likely to become good readers.

Parents/caregivers share in making music with their child in class and are guided to continue daily musical activities at home. Toddler Tunes provides a wonderful bonding opportunity for parent and child and the motivating music makes it fun for the whole family.

Music in Me

Age Range: 3 - 6 years
Course Length: 16 weeks 
45 minute each

Music in Me is designed to immerse children and parents in activities which develop the ear, utilize the tactile-kinesthetic sense, explore keyboard geography and playing through tracking activities, set pre-reading concepts combined with pitch awareness, experience large motor skills in movement songs and fine motor skills with hand/finger play songs and activities.

Parents/caregivers share in class time and are guided in follow-up activities.

As parents/caregivers, teacher, and children share in the music making – a strong bond is made that will last a lifetime.

Hello Music

Age Range: 3 - 6 years
Course Length: 4 weeks
45 min each

The Hello Music course is an introductory class and actively involves the parent/caregiver and child as they experience movement, solfege singing, fun activity songs, rhythm (with body rhythm and small percussion instruments), hand/finger readiness games, keyboard/piano activities for keyboard geography and pitch concepts, plus creative projects to prepare for first note reading experiences for three to six-year-olds who are new to the Harmony Road Music Course.
It can also serve as a continuing program for children who have attended the "Toddler Tunes" classes.

REGISTRATION: The Registration fee covers all administrative costs for each 4 week term. Registration fees are non-refundable (unless the class time is canceled by the music school).
For questions or further information, contact the school at (406) 363-5491

CLASS SIZE: Each beginning class must have a minimum of 3 students. If one of the classes you have registered for does not have enough students, we will contact you and make arrangements for a different time. Maximum class size is 6 students with parent/caregiver.

ATTENDANCE: Bitterroot School of Music offers NO refunds or credits for student absences; however, arrangements may be made for a make-up class if available. Classes missed because of teacher illness or inclement weather will be rescheduled to a reasonable day and time. The teacher will notify you in advance of any make-up classes of this kind.

TUITION PAYMENTS: Payable in advance and due no later than first class. Payments can be made in the form of cash, check, or credit card. Notifying the school in advance of an absence is a courtesy to the teacher but does not excuse tuition payment. Tuition paid for the term is not refundable in part or whole. When a student is enrolled in the Harmony Road Music program, a commitment is made for the entire term.

SIBLINGS: The class your child is enrolled in is for him/her and parent/caregiver to share. A non-enrolled sibling of any age is a distraction for your enrolled child, you, everyone else in the class, and your teacher. While we love these little ones dearly, we ask that you make other arrangements for them during our classes. Your enrolled child/ren will be happy to be sharing this special time with you. On the rare occasion that a sibling must be present, the sibling must be under the direct supervision of the parent/caregiver at all times.
You may enroll up to 2 age-appropriate siblings in each class, knowing that the parent/caregiver is responsible for both children’s engagement in class and at home.

WITHDRAWALS: Students withdrawing from the program shall pay tuition to the end of the term. No refund is issued for any remaining classes for the current term when a student withdraws during the term.

RETURNED CHECK: The customer agrees to pay the thirty-five dollars ($35.00) processing fee for a returned check (NSF, etc.), whatever the reason.

OTHER: Bitterroot School of Music reserves the right to reschedule, regroup, discontinue classes, or reassign teachers as deemed necessary.
