Private lessons are highly encouraged for advancement on your child's instrument. the johnson hs cluster has assembled a fantastic staff of private lessons teachers for the 2025-2026 school year. All of these teachers are approved by hays cisd. private lessons offer your child a unique experience that he/she cannot receive in a regular classroom setting. if you choose to participate in the program, your son/daughter will meet with a private instrumental specialist once a week at an arranged time. Lesson times range from twenty minutes to an hour. during this time, your child will have 100% of the teacher's attention. these lessons will be geared toward helping your son/daughter 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 will contribute a great amount of student's musical success. listed are the teacher's contact information if you're interested in starting lessons for your child.
