École de musique l’Accroche Notes is a Lévis, Quebec community music school with 31 years of registration, $632K in revenue, and a compensation ratio of 97.5% — reflecting the fundamental reality that music education is delivered almost entirely through teacher salaries. With 76% program spending and steady revenue growth, this school earns an A+ despite the extreme compensation structure.
Our Verdict: A long-established Quebec music school where nearly all spending goes to teacher compensation, which IS the educational program — donors should understand that the extreme compensation ratio is inherent to music education delivery rather than a sign of mismanagement.
