House Band Showed Off Their Chops & Sizzled at Bacon Fest! 

The Vienna House Band took a trip up north to perform with our good friends from the Easton School of Rock at the PA Bacon Fest! They definitely brought home the bacon on stage. Such a fun day and incredible performances from the entire group!! People in the crowd walking past the stage would do a double take and stop in their tracks to listen to more! Check out these pics of us "hogging" the stage!

Winter Break Holiday Schedule


School of Rock Vienna will be CLOSED ON SATURDAY, December 24th through SUNDAY, January 1st, for our Winter Holiday Break! 

We will be OPEN Monday, January 2nd, for all regularly scheduled lessons and classes. These holiday closures are built into the tuition fee schedule, and therefore make-up lessons will not be required.

We hope you all have a fun, festive, and wonderful Holiday Season!

Inclement Weather Close/Open Procedures


It's almost that time of year again, so here's a reminder about our Inclement Weather Policy. We do not follow the county school closures about whether we will hold in person lessons or groups. Frequently the county makes their decisions in the morning based on whether or not the buses can maneuver through the neighborhoods. We make our decision to open/hold in person lessons or groups based on whether or not our staff can safely come to work. Once we have that, we will announce our "Open In Person" or "We're Going Online" status on inclement weather days by 1PM by sending you an email (Pike 13) and posting on our main SOR Vienna Facebook page and in our BAND groups. So be sure to check your inbox and social media prior to heading out. And stay warm out there!
