Contacting Mrs. Robinson: Please be sure to send your email messages for Mrs. Robinson to robina2@collierschools.com. Some parents and students have been emailing a “Charms” email address charmsemailsender@charmsmusic.com. Mrs. Robinson cannot access messages sent to that email address.

  
Krispy Kreme Fundraiser: Thank you to everyone who participated in this fundraiser. We sold over 600 boxes! If you have not turned in your order, please do so by Monday. We’re hoping to have the donuts delivered later this week, possibly Thursday. Once this date is confirmed, we will notify families.
 
 
Cookie Dough Trip Fundraiser: Our first trip fundraiser will start on Monday, April 16th and go till Friday, April 27th. We will be selling cookie dough and other various items. Students will have the opportunity to put 40% of everything they sell towards next year’s trip. More information will be provided via email.
 
 
Band Playing Tests: All wind players grades 9-11 will be taking a playing test on April 16-19. These tests will be given during class, lunch and after school.
 
 
Uniform Measurements: DeMoulin, the marching band uniform company making our new band uniforms will be at the school on Tuesday, April 17th. We will be measuring all returning students for their new uniforms. Incoming freshmen will not need to be measured since they typically grow significantly between 8th and 9th grade.  This is the only day DeMoulin will be able to measure our returning students. Students who do not get measured will still get a uniform next year. It just helps to get as many students measured as possible.

Incoming freshmen that play a wind instrument may choose to audition into a higher-level band by scheduling a band placement audition. Incoming freshmen who do not audition will automatically be placed into Symphonic Band. To schedule an audition, please email Mrs. Annabelle Robinson at robina2@collierschools.com. An appointment is required to audition.
