Private Lesson Staff
In addition to individual band classes, we also have a wonderful staff of private music instructors. Each teacher is an expert on his or her individual instruments and was selected to teach in our school district by the Fine Arts Director and the band directors in our school district.
The music lessons last half a class period, once a week, at a cost of $22.00 per lesson. Private lessons are not required, and they will not affect your student’s grade; however, students that take this opportunity tend to progress at a much faster rate. They also usually find themselves at a higher level much faster than is normally expected. If you are interested, please reach out to one of the band directors.
Scholarship opportunities are available for students in need of financial assistance. Students must meet specific criteria and fill out a private lesson scholarship request form. We believe that any student with the drive to be in private lessons should have the opportunity to do so.
