Better Sooner (3 free lessons for 6th graders)
Private Lessons
If your student is in 6th grade, they can get 3 free private lessons with our Better Sooner Program.
Look for Tutorpalooza in the Spring for a fun day of free lessons to try it out!
While private lessons are not required to participate in the MIHS band program, they are encouraged. Students hoping to move into the upper ensembles will benefit greatly from the individual attention, specialization, and instrumental expertise a tutor or private instructor is able to offer.
The Mercer Island School District or the Mercer Island Schools Band Boosters do not endorse these lists.
