Thanks to a very generous Donor – Jim Trepasso,Mr. EK’s own Junior High School Music Director at Correia MS (Point Loma, San Diego) – RMS Music recently welcomed the addition of a Grand Piano!!

In addition to Mr. Trepasso’s GIFT of the Grand Piano, another very generous Donor covered the expenses of installing the Grand Piano in the RMS Auditorium for the benefit of the RMS Community as a whole.

Because of these two thoughtful Advocates for Music Education in schools, our doors have been opened to a variety of performing arts opportunities:
