All Franklin band students are highly encouraged to enroll in private lessons. Private lessons offer your child a unique experience that they cannot receive in a regular classroom setting. If you choose to participate in the program, your child will meet with a private instrumental specialist once a week in their normal band class. Lessons last half a class period, typically twenty minutes or so. During this time, your student will have 100% of the instructor’s attention. These lessons will be geared toward helping your child become a truly great musician by teaching them how to improve their musical skills. While we as a band staff strive to work with each student regularly, we are limited because of class size and time. We feel that private lessons are a wonderful resource and that it contributes a great amount to our students' musical success. If you have any questions regarding private lessons please contact Mr. Tewell (317)-346-8438 tewellj@franklinschools.org or Mr. Bullock (317) 346-8665 bullockj@franklinschools.org.
Each lesson costs $15. Payment is to be made by the student to the instructor with a check made payable to: FCS BAND BOOSTERS. This allows the instructor to be covered by the corporation’s liability insurance. Private lessons cannot be paid through PayPal or any other online format. Lesson payments should be made one month in advance. Any special financial arrangements are between the student and the private instructor.
