Sound Support

At a fundraiser on June 9, under the Rye Town Park Pavilion, a parent and committee of the Rye High School Parsons Street Players raised over $15,000 for upgrades to the sound system at the school’s Performing Arts Center.

In moving appeals, Schools Superintendent Dr. Brian Monahan and Rye High music teacher and Players’ advisor Tom Snowden, along with outgoing and incoming PSP presidents Jaime Ryan and Abi Repetto, emphasized what the performing arts, the Players, and the Performing Arts Center mean to Rye’s children, families, and the community. 

The Center serves a multitude of functions, from RMS/RHS theater productions and musical concerts, to Rye School of Dance performances, “Heard in Rye” presentations, and elementary school ceremonies.

The estimated cost of the sound system is $70,000, so the committee is reaching out to the community for donations. Checks may be made payable to: Rye City School District with “Donation PSP/Sound Equipment” in the memo line, and mailed to Randee Glick-Polito, 15 Winthrop Street, Rye, NY 10580.
