GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT!

Coral Glades Jaguar Marching Band finished their inaugural marching season by participating in the FBA District 15 Marching Festival at Coral Springs High School. Along with 25 other bands from Broward County schools, Coral Glades students were assessed against a standard by the judges who watched them perform their "Pirates of the Caribbean" marching show. The students were excited and proud to be wearing their new band uniforms for the first time and they looked very sharp as they marched on to the field. The parents who were there thought it was their best performance yet and the judges obviously agreed.

The band scores where:

Music Performance: Excellent
Music Effect: Excellent
Marching: Superior
General Effect: Excellent
Auxiliary: Superior

Final score: Excellent

These scores were wonderful
for a first year band.

All the students should feel very proud and the parents are certainly proud of them.

Congratulations to Ms. Larragoity and the band on a successful marching season.

Want to check how we did compared with
other schols from our district?


What's New?!?!?

Well, I am happy to report the great success Coral Glades High School and its programs have had in its inaugural three weeks!!! The school looks beautiful and has proved to be an extraordinary educational environment.

Since it's opening, the Band, Color Guard, and Orchestra have overcome many "growing pains" and persevered looking positively into the future.

The season promises to be an exciting one for every member of this Instrumental Department including the newly established Parent Association that has become actively involved in fundraising and planning for the year. We invite parents of all the programs to become active in all aspects of this growing program and support our children and their endeavors.

Please look through the different links to read what has happened and what is coming up.

  • Due to the recent weather inconveniences the Marching Band and Color Guard schedule has undergone some changes to help us be successful towards our season goals. We implore you to check the calendar and adjust yours to help our programs move forward.

  • The Orchestra is beginning their first fundraiser selling Domino's Pizza Cards and hope the sales exceed our expectations. They have recently elected their very first officers that will surely become vital leaders to this program. We congratulate Alyna, Rebecca, Santiago, Megan, Zach, and Stephen as they embark on a new journey.

  • The Band and Color Guard have had very successful Car Washes and are in the process of establishing their officers. Their enthusiasm for this Marching season is beyond inspiring!

  • We are in the process of putting together a Fall Trip to the University of South Florida for the Band, Color guard, and Orchestra. Please look out for upcoming Parent Meetings and more information.

  • Open House was a complete success!! I was very pleased to meet with all the parents and reacquaint myself with you. I hope to make this program a warm and inviting organization that welcomes each and everyone of you as often as you please.

Thank you all for your support thus far and I look forward to reporting more good news as the year progresses!!

Musically Yours,
Ingrid Larragoity
Coral Glades High School
Director of Instrumental Studies

A message from Sonny Rincon, our field crew coordinator:

Our inaugural season is off and walking unfortunately, only a few good men have signed up to assist with field crew. We are quite fortunate that 80% of the equipment requires pushing and pulling as we are able to roll them around with very little lifting. However, the equipment often needs two and sometimes three individuals to help push it around. We are asking that you volunteer your time for at least two hours an event for us to get off and running during the bands performances.

Please visit our calendar page to find out our schedule of events. Field Crew helpers are only needed one hour before a home game and two hours before a local away game.

Thank you.
