Private lessons are not required but are essential for a young musician to advance their knowledge of his/her own instrument. Students that take private lessons usually advance at a much faster rate, and are usually more successful in general performance and assessment, solos, ensembles and other various performing opportunities. If you are interested, please contact your student’s band director. Lesson costs vary, but are readily available and affordable. Some teachers are available to teach lessons during the band class, but most lessons are held outside of the school day.
Students who are playing a school-owned secondary instrument are required to take private lessons.
