    Eagles’ Wings School of Music Our Purpose Eagles’ Wings School of Music exists to encourage excellence in music and life. With the support of parents, we aim not only to enrich the lives of our students, but to motivate them to enrich the lives of others for the glory of God, especially through service in the local church. Instructors Our faculty are skilled musicians and teachers who are well-grounded in their faith, active in their churches, and intentional in their witness. Mrs. Tiffany Hanson (piano and voice) – thanson@sbcfamily.org Mr. Presson (piano and guitar) – pressonruss@gmail.com Teacher biographies may be found here. Instruction Offered We provide a minimum of 28 lessons for the year, averaging 12 in the fall and 16 in the spring. Lessons are 30 minutes per week, and cover performance technique, music literacy, interpretation, and theory. We currently offer piano (Mr. Presson & Mrs. Hanson), voice (Mrs. Hanson), and beginner to intermediate guitar (Mr. Presson). A 6-week summer session may be offered at the discretion of the teacher. Performance Opportunities All piano students will play in a spring recital. Students may also be asked to perform throughout the year for special occasions, including the Christmas program, Grandparent’s Day, and Spring Gala. Practice While expectations will vary, students generally will be expected to practice at least four days per week. Lesson Materials Instructors either secure materials and bill students through FACTS, or advise students how to secure materials. It is vital that each student brings all materials to every lesson. After one failure to do so, subsequent failure will result in the cancellation and forfeiture of the lesson. A student should always first report to the lesson in such cases so the teacher may officially cancel the lesson and see the student back to his/her classroom when applicable. Schedule 6th-12th grade RVCS students are scheduled during elective periods or before or after school. Other students are scheduled throughout the school day or before or after school. The instructor of program director will work with the student, teacher, and school to find a mutually agreeable time. The School of Music follows the RVCS calendar, and does not hold lessons when school is not in session. If RVCS is closed due to inclement weather, the School of Music will also be closed. Lessons will be rescheduled as needed. Attendance and Make-Ups Up to two lessons per semester will be rescheduled for student absences due to scheduling conflicts or illness. For scheduling conflicts, 24-hour notice must be given to the teacher. For illness, notice should be given at the first opportunity. Student no-shows will not be rescheduled or refunded. Should an instructor miss a lesson unexpectedly, the student should immediately return to his or her classroom. For Summer Session, one make-up lesson may be given to accommodate an emergency or illness. Tuition Tuition: $350 per semester ($700 per year) Optional 6-week Summer Session Tuition: $120 Mid-semester refunds are granted only when a student cannot physically continue lessons due to illness or relocation.

  • Supplementary Learning Program | RVCS

A full psychological evaluation, less than three years old, with a specific diagnosis is required to be eligible for therapy. Educational and psychological testing identifies areas of weaknesses. Therapy strengthens those areas of weakness in perception and cognition through individualized instruction. Students are encouraged to think logically, formulate judgments, and solve problem through the careful questioning and cueing of the therapist. Therapists work closely with classroom teachers to provide accommodations or modifications in the regular classroom. Development of confident, independent, lifelong learners is the objective.
