Middle & Upper School Parents/Students -

During the 2017-2018 school year, Middle and Upper School students have the opportunity of taking one-on-one, weekly instrumental music lessons on the Wisconsin Avenue campus.  Private instrument lessons give students an opportunity to develop/enhance skill on a musical instrument, with the goal of participating in a Middle and/or Upper School ensemble. Lessons also provide the essential, instrument-specific focus that an ensemble experience can’t always address. Students currently participating in an SFS instrumental ensemble are strongly encouraged to take private lessons. Lessons provide the invaluable support for the young musician while challenging the advanced student in need of more demanding repertoire and technique.

30, 45 or 60-minute lessons will be offered for the following instruments:

Violin

Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone

Guitar

Electric Bass

Drum Set

Jazz Piano (covers all contemporary piano styles)

NOTE: With limited lesson space/time, instruments offered are chosen to support growth in current SFS ensemble programs.

For instruments not listed, please inquire via the contact information below.

If you are interested in this program in a new or returning capacity, and/or would like more information, please log into the SFS Lesson Program web page (via the parent portal) in order to:

1. Read the complete Lesson Policies document,“Lesson Policies 2017-2018.pdf” before Pre-Registering.

2. Fill out the online Pre-Registration intent form. Pre-Registration allows families to express interest in the program and helps the school determine the demand for particular instruments. With this step, families are not officially registering and no payment is required.
