About the PRHS Auxiliary Team

Auxiliary is a year-long class listed as Dance Techniques on your schedule. Students who complete an audition will be placed into dance, flag, or rifle for the “Marching Band Season,” which is in the first semester. The second semester is called “Indoor Season.” During Indoor Season, students in Dance will form our Competitive Dance Team and students on flag and rifle will either be placed in our Varsity Guard or JV Guard. Whether students are placed on dance, flag, or rifle, they will all still be required to eventually learn how to dance and spin a flag.
