About Our School

What Makes Us Special
Tucson High is a magnet school with programs in natural sciences and visual and performing arts. We have an active relationship with nearby University of Arizona. Some classes are taught by university professors, and some science classes visit the university for authentic learning experiences.

We are the district’s oldest high school; our halls are steeped in history, and we boast of a strong sense of community pride, with alumni supporting the school and sporting Badger red and white.

In addition to the magnet programs, we offer career and technical instruction including classes in welding, auto mechanics, digital media and more. We provide varied interscholastic programs and clubs for just about every interest.
