Open House – Music in the Air
|

Thank you to all who attended our Open House last evening! We’re glad you were able tour the school and meet our teachers, Claire, Priscilla and Pauline.

Plus as a special treat, our Suzuki Music Instructor, Jennifer Diedrich brought in some students from her private studio to perform in the lobby – great inspiration for future FASTB musicians!! At left is a brief clip of their performance. We will be beginning Suzuki lessons in October and will be sending out information to parents soon.
For those who could not attend, please don’t hesitate to contact us for a private tour – you can reply to this email or contact our Director, Dan Hannigan at dan.hannigan@fastb.org. Additionally, below you will find more information about our application process. Merci!

Friday, September 21, 2018 will always go down in FASTB history as Sign Day!
From morning delivery to the moonlit night, it was a great and well-documented day!

Return of Business Observer
|
|
|
|
You may recall a very nice article written by Brian Hartz of Business Observer shortly after we announced our opening this past spring (if not, here it is). Well, Business Observer selected FASTB as a hosting site for a photo and video shoot this week for their upcoming 40 Under 40 special edition honoring 40 of the top business people in the region under the age of 40. We enjoyed meeting everyone – and they were fascinated by the school. Watch for the special issue next month!
