Music Lessons
Music Extension offers after school lessons, to help your children further their ability and knowledge of their chosen instrument: violin, viola, cello, flute, saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, and percussion. These lessons are for students in grades 5-8 at the Public Schools of Brookline.
To register, you must complete this Student Form and pay for one of the options below. You are not fully registered until you complete both parts.

PLEASE NOTE: If your child has taken any programs with us in the past (including Music Extension, SmartSummers, or one of our SmartVacation programs), then you do not need to create another account.
