Thank you to everyone who participated in Spirit Week last week! We are very proud of all our students. We accomplished a lot and are off to a great start.
 
Please don’t forget that we are doing the Poppin’ Popcorn Fundraiser. All students were asked by Mrs. Robinson to sell at least one item. Please do your best to participate in these fundraisers so that we can provide our students with all their needs for the school year. Students have until August 14th to sell. Fundraiser forms are available in the band office.
 
This week’s Marchers of the Week are Laura Serramondi (woodwind), Michael Gordon (brass), Diego Font (percussion), Gabriella Portu (auxiliary), and Shelby Newransky (officer).
 
This week’s Section of the Week is our Saxophone Section, led by Section Leaders Remington Newton, David Hernandez-Lora, and Brandon Lopez! Congratulations to all! Please keep up the good work!
 
We are moving the Marching Pride Family Preview Night to Thursday, August 19th. This will allow some of our students who have been out to catch up and learn the show.
 
The District sent out a message today stating that our local medical professionals in Collier County highly recommend the use of masks by teachers and students. Masks are optional, but we strongly recommend that all consider wearing them in public.
 
Here are more details and reminders for this week’s events.
 
 
This Week’s Schedule:
 
Monday (8/9)
  • Freshmen Orientation, Performance Call, 6:15pm
Tuesday (8/10)
  • First day of school for students
  • Marching Band Rehearsal, 5:30-8:30pm
Thursday (8/12)
  • Marching Band Rehearsal, 5:30-8:30pm (band wears black t-shirts)
Saturday (8/14)
  • Poppin’ Popcorn Fundraiser Ends
 
 
PRHS Freshmen Orientation (Mon. 8/9): Call time for all sophomores, juniors, and seniors is 6:15pm. All freshmen will attend the orientation and cannot perform with the band. Band students will wear this year’s silver band shirt and green shorts. Auxiliary students will wear this year’s black band shirt and black bottoms. Students will be done by 8:00pm.
 

First Day of School (Tues. 8/10): The first day of school for students is Tuesday! The school is not providing students with a hard copy of their schedule. Students are to look up their schedules on Focus.
 
Pro Tips: Locate and charge your school laptops and have them ready for Tuesday! Download the new “Collier Focus” app on your phones so that you can look up your schedule. Band students typically socialize in the band room prior to the start of school. New Marching Pride students can stop by the band room in the morning to ask upper class-men their questions.
 

Regular Marching Band Rehearsals: Our regular rehearsals will start this week. We typically rehearse on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30-8:30pm. Please refer to the band calendar for all rehearsal dates and times. We assign the band students to a certain colored shirt for Thursday rehearsals. For this Thursday, we’re asking all band students to wear a black shirt and auxiliary will wear white. This helps with cleaning drill.
 
 
Stay Informed! Sync Your Phone: All students and parents are strongly encouraged to sync their phones with the band calendar. Step-by-step instructions can be found on the band website: https://www.prhsbands.org/uploads/1/0/7/8/107847845/new_sync_phone_to_calendar.pdf
 
Pro Tip: There is a very long link that needs to be entered in your phone settings. Copy and paste the entire link instead of trying to type it out.
 
 
Marching Pride Senior Banners Make-up (TBD): We plan on having a make-up picture day for seniors who were not able to have their pictures taken for their senior banner. The date is still TBD.
 
 
Band and Auxiliary Orders (Past Due): If you student still needs to order shoes, please ask Mrs. Robinson for an order form and place your order ASAP. At this point, we cannot guarantee that your shoes will arrive in time for the first game.  
 
 
Instrument Repair & Equipment: Our trusted local vendors are Cadence Music (239) 275-6262 and Christman Music (239) 254-8863. If needed, please be sure to get your instrument fixed and have all your needed supplies. All woodwind and brass students are being reminded that they need to have their required accessories no later than the first week of school!
  • Flutes – swab and key oil
  • Clarinets & Saxes – swab, key oil, reeds, reed case, and neck strap for saxes
  • Brass – towel, valve oil, slide grease (trombones need their specific slide cream)
