You obviously didn’t look very hard.

How did I not look very hard? Their math stops at caculus AB.

The teachers for string instruments are truly phenomenal, and for a child who wants to be a professional musician, Interlochen could very easily end up being the difference between success and failure. I’ve been amazed by some of the transformations I’ve seen in a student’s playing in just a year or two.

As a camp, Interlochen isn’t really where the very best string players go, but the Academy is a totally different story.

You won’t find that as the majority opinion on the Interlochen parents FB page.
It’s funny how people with no connection ruin to a school feel free to make stuff up.
