Thank you for visiting today. In these pages you will find information about the band programs at Tucson High, fun photos and videos and information regarding upcoming events.
As we say goodbye to old friends, say hello to new ones and and prepare for 2012 - 2013, we would like to thank all of the hardworking students, parents and volunteers! Without the wonderful parents, the band programs at Tucson High would not be as successful as they are today.
Going forward, we will be announcing new Marching 100 student leadership, posting sheet music, and updating everyone on band activities. Just because school is out, doesn't mean the band room closes! Let the Google Calendar be your best friend!
A fundraising committee has been established for the Marching 100's big trip to the Holiday Bowl in December 2012! Be sure to keep track of what's happening by checking the website and Google Calendar frequently. We don't want anyone to miss a thing!
