Central Dauphin School District


Summer Instrumental Music Lessons

In order to accommodate the schedules of students and instructors, we are listing the summer teachers with the dates, times, andlocation where they will be giving lessons. Please list your selected teacher and the dates that work for you to take lessons. The more information you give, the easier it will be to schedule lessons that fit your schedule. Requested teachers are not guaranteed, depending on the number of students who sign up for lessons. We will attempt to schedule students in the order the registrations are submitted.

Listed below for each teacher is where they currently teach, what they will be teaching over the summer, where their summer lessons will be held, and the dates and times that they will be teaching this summer. Please choose a teacher(s) with dates that best fit in your schedule and pick your number of lessons requested based on one lesson a week with the teacher(s) of your choice. Students taking piano, voice, or guitar lessons will need to purchase a lesson book for those lessons. Your teacher will give you instructions for which book to buy. Also, students taking instrumental lessons will need to bring their current lessons book and your teacher will let you know if you need any supplemental materials.
