A brief update from The Dallas School of Music regarding the continuation of lessons as we work to protect our faculty, students and families from COVID-19. During this difficult time, our priority continues to provide quality music education to all of our students and families, as well as providing a continued source of income for our faculty.
Rather than closing, The Dallas School of Music has made the decision to move all lessons online until further notice. DSM uses Google Meet as their online platform and regularly provides lessons around the world via our online services. It is our hope that our effort to keep lessons continuing without interruption will help provide a sense of normalcy and routine for our students in the coming weeks.
Students currently enrolled at DSM will be hearing from their faculty in the near future regarding their lessons if they haven’t already. All lessons will remain at their regularly scheduled days and times; however, if a change to your schedule needs to be made due to the current circumstances, please contact the business offices regarding a permanent schedule change via email at tamalyn@dsminfo.com, rather than your faculty member.
The Dallas School of Music resumes regular business hours today, Friday, March 20, 2020. For all prospective students, we are happy to hear from you and look forward to serving you! Please contact Dr. Bob Lawrence at drlawrence@dsminfo.com to learn more about the immediate learning opportunities available to you at DSM and to begin the enrollment process.
We look forward to seeing all of our students soon and pray for your continued health as we work together to discover, learn and play music!
COVID-19 Update 1 March 12, 2020
A brief update from The Dallas School of Music regarding the continuation of lessons as we work to protect our faculty, students and families from the COVID-19. Our priority has always been, and will continue to be, to provide top quality music education in a safe and secure environment.
While DSM will continue to provide lessons to students in-person at The Dallas School of Music, please be advised we are taking every opportunity to clean and sanitize our facility, studios and instruments. Understandably, if you feel more comfortable taking your lesson from the comfort of your home, DSM can provide an online class for you in place of your usual in-person lesson. In the case you do not feel comfortable taking your lesson in either of those ways, please cancel and use your rescheduling vouchers provided in your registration emails to reschedule at a later time in the semester.
Students coming to DSM should be prepared to arrive a few minutes early in order to wash their hands with soap and water provided in the restrooms prior to their lesson. Faculty have been advised to wash their hands between each student, as well as wipe down any keyboards used between lessons. DSM underwent a deep cleaning yesterday, as it does weekly; however, we will be increasing the cleaning of the facility during the coming weeks in an effort to keep germs to a minimum.
The DSM Calendar will continue as planned through Monday, March 16th and we will take our Spring Break as scheduled Tuesday-Thursday, March 17-19, while planning to resume lessons on Friday, March 20th.
Many thanks as we all work together to provide a clean and safe environment to discover, learn and play music!
