This is a district wide program that provides a high quality enhancement to classroom instruction. Teachers are all specialists on their instruments. Most of our teachers are professional musicians in the Houston area and have advanced degrees in the performance of their instruments. Lessons are extremely valuable to the individual student and are highly encouraged.
ALL students are ENCOURAGED to take individualized private instruction.
Teachers are screened and interviewed by the district.
Lessons will be given weekly, preferably during the band classes.
If there is a need for before/after school lessons, every effort will be made to schedule private lessons at times that do not conflict with marching rehearsals, sectionals, or other activities.
Detailed information will be distributed on the private lesson program.
