In 1996, Andrea Bennett, a professional vocalist, pianist, visual artist, and playwright, created after-school programs for children in her community. Every year her small group of children would have recitals and plays, to show all that they have accomplished. Today, Bennett Academy students have done professional work in commercials, music, film and some are great hobbyists. Many alumni have also received full & partial scholarships to their chosen university, for their musical accomplishments. Bennett Academy stands by its reputation for providing advanced learning techniques as well as a nurturing, esteem-building environment for its students. GROUP CLASSES
