About The Woodlands High School Band
The Woodlands High School Band has achieved many past accomplishments in both marching and concert activities. TWHS Marching Band is a 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2022 and 2023 UIL State Marching Contest Finalist. The band has been a Bands of America Regional Finalist for 28 consecutive years, a 17-time BOA Super Regional Finalist, and an eleven-time BOA Grand National Finalist. In addition, TWHS Band was named the 2013 Bands of America Super Regional Champions in San Antonio and the 2013 BOA Grand National Champions in Indianapolis.
TWHS Winter Guard is a former Texas State Color Guard Circuit Champion and Winter Guard International Open-Class Champion and competes in these events annually across the state of Texas. In addition, the guard was the 2013 WGI Southwestern Regional Champion. In 2019, TWHS Varsity Winter Guard was a World-Class Finalist at the WGI World Championships in Dayton, OH, a first for The Woodlands High School. In 2021, TWHS Varsity Winter Guard competed once again at the WGI World Championships in Dayton, OH, this time placing third - a first for The Woodlands High School and the first ever Color Guard in Texas to medal.
TWHS Percussion performed as a featured ensemble at the 2014 Percussive Arts Society in Indianapolis and performs extensive percussion ensemble concerts each spring. Its ensembles have been awarded the top honors in various percussion ensemble contests across the Houston area.
TWHS Concert Bands includes four competitive concert ensembles representing The Woodlands High School at the UIL Concert & Sight-Reading evaluations each year. All four concert bands consistently earn Superior ratings at these events. Past concert band performances include the Music for All National Concert Band Festival, the Field Studies Festival at Carnegie Hall in New York in 2009, and the Midwest Clinic in Chicago in 2003 and 2012. This coming spring of 2025, The Woodlands High School Band will host its 18th Annual Solo & Ensemble Festival which offers an opportunity for student musicians to showcase their musical talents through solo and ensemble performances. Many of its members consistently earn recognition in Region, Area and All State Bands year after year. The Woodlands High School Band is a proud recipient of the Sudler Flag of Honor and the Sudler Shield in 2009 and 2018.
These accomplishments and the success of The Woodlands High School Band would not be possible without the commitment of its members, its parent booster club, and the generous donations from our local businesses and individuals.
