Exciting Expansion of Park’s Partnership with Peabody Preparatory Institute

During the 2024–2025 school year, Park proudly launched a partnership with the Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University, bringing early childhood music and dance classes to both our students and the greater Baltimore community.

We’re thrilled to announce that this collaboration is growing! Beginning next school year, Peabody will also oversee and manage the after-school individual music lesson program at Park. This expansion will offer Park students in Grades PreK–12 an even broader range of high-quality music and dance opportunities. Park students will receive priority scheduling and a 20% discount on lesson packages.

Registration opens in August, with full details to be shared in the back-to-school mailing. Stay tuned!
