We are so proud to announce that CAM student, Elijah Chen, was recently awarded the honor of attaining the highest Royal Conservatory piano examination score in the state of SC. Elijah performed his exam at the University of South Carolina this past spring. Earning the State Certificate of Excellence is an incredible achievement! Elijah studies with Phyllis Teague at Charlotte Academy of Music.
The Royal Conservatory Certificate Program is an internationally recognized system that is developed, designed, maintained, and assessed by leading North American pedagogues and studio teachers. As a national, rather than regional, examination system, The Certificate Program maintains an overall, nationwide standard that complements existing state-based systems. The national standard provides a clear and meaningful structure and awareness of accomplishment that recognizes individual achievement and rewards excellence.
