A Legacy of Excellence

CLICK HERE FOR 50TH ANNIVERSARY EVENT INFORMATION

For over fifty years, University High School has been a bright light in public education in Southern Arizona.  What started in 1976 as a small program on the campus of Tucson High School has grown to become a top college preparatory school for a diverse student body.  In 2016, University High School hosted a 40th Anniversary Celebration and inducted its first Hall of Fame class which consisted of founding faculty members of the school.

At that time, the UHS Alumni and Family Patio was also launched to memorialize staff, alumni and families.  University High School has built a legacy of alumni who enjoyed formative years during high school based on principals of critical thinking, hard work, self-awareness and thoughtfulness.  UHS continues to build great citizens. 

This March, 2026 we look forward to coming together again to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the school and the second large Hall of Fame Ceremony (the first to recognize alumni).
