sarah randall, owner

Sarah began teaching at age 16 when a family from church heard her lead worship and asked her to teach two young kids how to play the guitar. Fast forward eight years, Sarah has built a thriving music studio that has trained over 180 musicians. Her passion for teaching combined with her love of owning a business make her the perfect fit to run Randall Music School. 

Sarah loves to see students develop their own style and play the music that they actually like. She loves to talk about music theory and help each student reach his or her goals, but she also thrives off of being creative, laughing with her students, and making sure that each lesson has an element of fun. She believes that the kids will be more engaged and more interested in music if they feel comfortable to be themselves in front of their teacher. 

Sarah also loves to instill a sense of community among those in Randall Music School, which is why she hosts events such as the summer pool party, Christmas craft night, and the annual recital. 

Sarah is an approved vendor for Inspire Charter Schools.

kristine krippner, substitute teacher

Kristine Krippner has always had a love for music. As a toddler she was always humming and singing and she began taking piano lessons in kindergarten. As a young girl one of her favorite pastimes was to spend hours listening to music on her record player, as a teenager she loved listening to her favorite bands on her Walkman and going to local concerts, and when she met her husband she was so excited to find that he too had this same love for music. They spent many of their first dates simply listening to amazing music together. They consider it a wonderful gift from God to have three daughters who have a love and talent for music. It is no surprise that they fostered this gift they saw in their girls, and over the years the sounds of piano, guitar, and beautiful vocal harmonies literally filled the house! Kristine is thrilled to be a sub for Randall Music School as she loves kids and loves to be a part of fostering their love of music.
