What Our Families Say

  • “My three children wanted to play different instruments and there are so many instructors at the St. Joseph Arts Academy, it was very easy for us to choose a time and date to fit our busy schedule. The teachers have always been very positive and encouraging to all of my children, which is very important to me.”
    Cindy P.
  • “St. Joseph Arts Academy is a wonderful place to learn how to play an instrument. Staff are warm and welcoming, the building is very clean. I love the unlimited make-ups aspect. With kids getting sick, it’s nice to know we will be able to make up classes at our convenience. My son’s teacher is the best. My son really enjoys every lesson and learning to play the piano. I’m so glad we found them!”
    Rachael D.
  • “SJAA is an incredibly welcoming environment that nurtures your child’s love of music in an absolutely positive manner. The staff is very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. My 6 year old can’t wait for her voice lesson each week!!”
    Katherine W.
  • “Thank You” to the SJAA, Dr. Frank Nawrot and her first teacher, Ms. Monica. She has learned so much and really enjoys the piano. She randomly runs to the piano throughout the day to play. It brings her lots of joy!”
