IF YOUR STUDENT TAKES PRIVATE LESSONS, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND PERFORMANCE IN THE
ALLEN ISD ORCHESTRA CHAMBER FESTIVAL – PRIVATE TEACHERS ARE TEACHING TOWARDS THE GOAL OF SOLO & ENSEMBLE
* denotes instructors who teach on campus during the day. Lessons during school hours only available at Secondary campuses (MS & HS).
From the AISD Orchestra Handbook: With private lessons, participating students can have the luxury of extra help on a one-to-one basis. Each lesson from the AISD program costs $22.00 for half-hour of instruction. It is up to students and parents to coordinate lessons which are off-campus and not a part of instruction during the school day. Applications and further information can be obtained from your orchestra director. Lesson slots and times are honored on a first-come, first-served basis. It would be to your benefit to register early as time slots and studios fill early.
If you would like to teach in Allen ISD, please email matthew.cross@allenisd.org
