Birch Creek Music Performance Center has begun instruction. Typically, classes happen at their Egg Harbor campus. This year, everything is online, and Executive Director Mona Christensen says early lessons with the percussion group have surpassed her expectations. Sessions run three to four hours, lasting only one week rather than the traditional two. Christensen says anything longer isn’t conducive for remote learning, even though Birch Creek is not a typical school atmosphere.
Expect Birch Creek to continue using the online format in the future. Christensen says it could prove useful in anything from student applications to off-season classes.
