All BCMS band students are highly encouraged to enroll in private lessons. The band staff at LTISD has assembled a fantastic staff of private lesson instructors for your child. Private lessons offer your child a unique experience that he or she 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 at an arranged time, which can be during the student's regular band class period depending on teacher availability. Lesson times range from twenty minutes to an hour. 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. Private lessons are essential and they greatly contribute to a student's musical success.
