Musical Mentors is a free music tutoring service for middle and elementary students. Our goal is to expand the VAPA program throughout the district and inspire a love for music among these kids. Throughout our program, your student will learn how to play proper technique on his or her instrument through individual feedback from our high school mentors. These mentors are students currently at CVHS in the music program who also share a love for music. Additionally, we teach the fundamentals necessary to grow as a musician and prepare for high school. 

For the 2024 - 2025 school year, we are holding our sessions in person, as usual, at Capo Valley High School. In some cases, we pair students with the same mentor so that not only will your student feel more comfortable playing with someone else at their skill level, but also allows us to take in more participants. During this time, we have asked mentors to be flexible with each student's needs but have suggested they work on scales for half the time and personal music for the remainder. We try to pair students with a main mentor that they will work with for the entire year so that a trusting bond can be made and your student will feel comfortable knowing they will be working with the same person each week. Your student is welcome to bring any music they would like to work on as any of our mentors are more than happy to help work on it with them.

Musical Mentors is a year-long program set to occur every Thursday from 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm, unless it is during the week of a break (i.e. thanksgiving break) or if there is an event in which we are unable to hold a session. All reminders about no session that said week will be sent out in our weekly emails (contact us at cvhs.musical.mentors@gmail.com to be added to the email list).
