Currently, the MOR After-School Program is only able to offer instruction for violin; however, as the program grows and funding grows, MOR hopes to offer instruction for all instruments.

Are parents required to be involved in lessons?

Parental involvement is not required or expected; volunteers from PPD will work with the students to practice as part of the program.
