You may be seeing a few new faces around Coppell Conservatory this month. Below, Iwelcome two new piano teachers to our staff. As always, I thank you for trusting us in themusic education for your students and staying with us as we add the staff to support yourstudent's musical endeavors! Our new staff members, Ms. Wang and Mr. Garcia, are soexcited to be part of your students learning.

Now that we have settled into routines and schedules, please make sure part of yourdaily routine includes practice time with your instrument. School can be demanding withdaily homework, and even a short amount of daily practice on our busiest days keepsour learning retained and moving forward.
