The school opened several months ago, enrolling 85 students, including nearly 20 adults, by the end of May, Neto said. The school also recently held its first student performance at Dunedin Brewery.
School of Rock Clearwater currently has room to grow, with the facility designed to accommodate approximately 325 to 350 students, he added.
The school offers weekly individual instruction in guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and vocals, along with group rehearsals that culminate in live performances at real venues.
Although many of its students are children and teenagers, Neto said the adult program has also been popular.
“Not only music, but education itself for us is super important,” he said. “That’s also one of the reasons why we decided to go with an education business, helping children and teenagers in their growth paths.”
