All students will have their pictures taken in their marching band uniforms during class. Band students will wear clothes that can fit underneath their band uniform and hair will be styled down. Students will need marching band shoes, gloves, or hats for the pictures. Auxiliary students will wear their Mad World uniform, hair will be styled down and they can choose their own make-up. There is no cost to have your picture taken. Order forms were given in class.

Instrument Repair & Equipment: Our trusted local vendors are Cadence Music and Christman Music. Both vendors can drop off orders and pick-up instruments for repair at PRHS—but parents must call to make arrangements ahead of time. Instruments will not be picked up unless orders for repair are placed ahead of time. Contact information for Cadence Music and Christman Music can be found on the band website under the “Students” tab. Questions? Please email Mrs. Robinson at [email protected].
