Tag Day: A Herndon High School Tradition

On Saturday, September 6, 2025, the Pride of Herndon will hold its largest fundraiser and one of Herndon’s favorite traditions—Tag Day. Band students in their red and white uniforms will visit neighborhoods across the Herndon High School District. They will share information about the program and connect with neighbors—so be sure to watch out for them!

A Tradition of Community Engagement

Last year, 88 students knocked on nearly 10,000 doors. They walked thousands of steps and brought music and spirit to 10 neighborhoods in the Reston-Herndon area. This event is not just about fundraising; it’s about building connections within our community. Our students look forward to your encouragement and support to keep this tradition strong.

The Impact of Tag Day

Tag Day is more than just a fundraiser. It fosters a sense of unity and pride among students and residents alike. When band students visit your home, they are not just asking for donations; they are sharing their passion for music and the arts. This interaction helps to strengthen community ties and promotes local support for the arts.
