Bach to Rock music programs for kids in Johns Creek are designed to get students on stage performing, with the goal of building strong musical proficiency. Younger students at School of Rock Johns Creek who have participated in the Rookies program can move to their Rock 101 music program once they’re ready. Additionally, students (typically ages 8 to 13-years-old) can begin Rock 101 without any prior experience. The goal of this rock program is to quickly develop a basic competence on students’ chosen instruments before moving on to our famous Performance Program. Be sure to show your appreciation for their performances on stage!
