Activities
Colony High School had the state's only marching band for 15 years until 2017, when one other school in the area started a band. The following season, three other schools also started bands and four of the five participated in the 2018 Invitational hosted annually by Colony.[2] The marching band was invited to march at the 2009 Inaugural Parade for Barack Obama.[3] It participated in the 2014 Tournament of Roses Parade on January 1, 2014 in Pasadena, CA,[4] and the 2017 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.[5]
The school produces its own newspaper, entitled The Knightly News.
