About School of Rock (Richard Linklater, 2003):

Overly enthusiastic guitarist Dewey Finn (Jack Black) gets thrown out of his bar band and finds himself in desperate need of work. Posing as a substitute music teacher at an elite private elementary school, he exposes his students to the hard rock gods he idolizes and emulates -- much to the consternation of the uptight principal (Joan Cusack). As he gets his privileged and precocious charges in touch with their inner rock 'n' roll animals, he imagines redemption at a local Battle of the Bands.

About School of Rock (Educational Program):

School of Rock is a music education program that emphasizes performance-based learning for students of all ages and skill levels. Their approach, known as the School of Rock Method, combines private lessons with group rehearsals and live performances, teaching students to play together as a band. The program aims to build musical proficiency, confidence, and a love for music through engaging and effective methods.
