In the 2003 musical comedy “School of Rock,” Jack Black plays a wayward rock guitarist who takes a gig as a substitute teacher and trains a class of brainy fifth-graders to play rock instruments, and eventually, compete in a local Battle of the Bands. By the movie’s end, the kids not only go home with the grand prize, but with a profound sense of purpose and belonging.
Founded in 1998 by Philadelphia musician and philanthropist Paul Green, the real-life School of Rock is not your standard after-school music class: It’s a year-round program dedicated to teaching music through both classic and contemporary rock songs, which students ages 8 to 18 first learn to perform privately, then together in bands. Ultimately, each band is thrust into the limelight, ready to shred their favorite Beatles, Nirvana or Bikini Kill song before a live audience.
