Virtual Private Lessons

​Private lessons will be offered virtually for the 20-21 school year.  They are provided for interested students as an enrichment program in orchestra. The RHS Area private teachers are contracted through the RISD and must complete an application and criminal history check. These teachers can teach during your child's orchestra class or before or after school on your campus. Private lesson fees are $20 per weekly 30-minute lesson and rates are determined by the RISD Fine Arts. While private study is not a requirement for participation in any orchestra, students are strongly encouraged to participate.
