Congratulations to Jazz Band 1 on a great performance at their Pre-MPA at Gulf Coast last night. We had a great first public performance with our MPA music, and we had a great clinic with Jeff Rupert and Richard Drexler from the University of Central Florida. We especially enjoyed hearing the UCF Flying Horse Big Band perform at the end of the evening! Thank you GCHS Bands for hosting such a wonderful event! Our Disney Band Trip is in just 5 days!

Thank you for supporting the Marching Pride! NEW GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MARCHING PRIDE!!! During last night’s Jazz Pre-MPA, Mrs. Robinson realized that there’s never a lot of time to get to know the students and parents. Rehearsals and performances get hectic, and we haven’t had any time to get to know our students or parents since Band Camp. So we’re going to try to do a “Getting To Know Your Marching Pride” every week in the weekly update where we’ll ask a random question to staff, select students, and select parent volunteers. This is just a fun survey to learn something random about one another and then it’ll also be an opportunity for Mrs. Robinson to learn something about you if you’d like to share. Simply fill out the weekly survey/quiz, hit submit, and then be sure to click on “View Score” to see what information you got right. Here’s this Week’s Getting To Know Your Marching Pride: https://forms.gle/NdLjfeeXNkY5QSZk9 Questions? Please email Mrs. Annabelle Robinson at [email protected].
