Congratulations to our concert bands and jazz bands on a very successful Mid-Year Band Concert! It was so nice to have the students perform on stage in the auditorium. It’s hard to believe that that was our first on stage performance in over a year! Thank you to all of our parents and family members who came out to support the bands. We hope to see you all again at the Spring Band Concert on Thursday, May 13th!
 
This Monday we are holding our 2021-2022 Marching Pride Information Meeting. This meeting is for all students (new and returning) who plan on joining us next season! More information can be found below.
 
This Tuesday all students are testing. All students are being reminded to charge their laptops on Monday night and bring headphones/earbuds and their laptop chargers to testing on Tuesday. Good luck students!
 
This Thursday our band students will have an in-school concert during 6th and 7th period. Concert/formal attire is not required. This will allow the students to have the opportunity to listen and support each other as they prepare for MPA and the Concert Band Festival.
 
All concert bands will make their MPA recordings this week and Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Wind Symphony will both travel to Gulf Coast High School on Friday for the Collier County Concert Band Festival.
 
FINAL REMINDER, band Pictures should be available online to those who registered. If you are not getting information on how to view and order pictures, please email the photographer at [email protected] and he can assist you. Please be sure to tell the photographer your student’s name.
