The Lawrenceville-Suwanee School of Music – Owner: Mrs. Valencia Giles
A Letter from Mrs. Valencia Giles:
At the age of 7, my dad gave me my first piano. I was so excited and enjoyed piano lessons like a little girl with a brand new doll. Little did I know the impact this gift would have on my life. My elementary years were filled with music. By middle school, my second choice of instrument was the flute. Looking back, I realized that each band director in middle school, high school, and college appointed me as the director’s assistant. This path led me to the position I have today. As the Director of LSSM, I find that my passion for teaching, assisting, and helping students has only grown. I love what I do and I have a vision for every student who walks in the door. I am committed to making sure their musical beginning is filled with fun, quality instruction, and care. I am committed to hiring teachers that are committed to the same goals of excellence. Graduating with honors from Alabama A&M University with a double major in flute and piano was intense and rewarding. I am a member of the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA). I am the author of “Beaker’s House of Music,” a note theory curriculum; a recording artist for kids, and a composer. Also, I am a wife & mother of 3 wonderful children.
Being a kid today is not easy. That is why our students not only learn how to play an instrument but we teach them how to excel at life.
We help students who are overwhelmed with school, need a fun way to relieve stress, play air guitar, sing all the time, and more! Our music school is a family! We love our students and we love music!
