| Benefits of Private Lessons |
It can be seen in everything that we do as a band from marching competitions to district band auditions: Bands excel
when their students are in weekly private lessons with quality teachers. For us to take the West band program to
the next level and continue to accomplish the goals set forth in our 10-year strategic plan, we need our band students
in weekly lessons with our recommended teachers. For an extensive list of the benefits of one-on-one instruction and
a complete listing of Mr. Kirk's recommended teachers visit www.bvwestband.com/privatelessons
