Redan High School is a public secondary school of the DeKalb County School District located in Redan, Georgia.

Redan was established in 1976 by the DeKalb County School District. The school's mascot is the Raider. Both Redan High School and its "twin," Stone Mountain High School, were built without any main windows on their exteriors (except for in the main common area). The windowless construction was for energy-saving purposes during the "energy crunch" of the mid-to-late 1970s.

As part of the DeKalb County School District, the school is accredited through AdvancED through 2022.[2]

Campus

The school is in Redan,[3] a census-designated place in unincorporated DeKalb County, Georgia, United States. The school is south of the city of Stone Mountain and has a Stone Mountain mailing address.[4]

Marching band

The Redan High School "Blue Thunder" Marching Band is one of the largest high school marching bands in the state of Georgia and in the southeast.[5] The band has won the national VH1 Save the Music Battle of the Bands twice, the only high school band invited to perform in this competition to do so.[6]

The band performs consistently highly in both marching band and concert band competitions, and was considered for inclusion in the inaugural parade of President Barack Obama in January 2009.

The band was featured in the blockbuster movie Drumline and the Disneyland Christmas parade, and shot a live commercial while performing at the Atlanta Football Classic. The band has recorded live commercials for several Fortune 500 companies and featured on releases by a number of recording artists. In November 2009, the Marching Blue Thunder was asked to perform in the movie Stomp the Yard 2: Homecoming, released in 2010.

The band has performed for many college and university halftime shows, including the Florida A&M Homecoming Celebration, Jackson State University, Bethune-Cookman University, Norfolk State University, and Tennessee State University, as well as major international events including the Chinese Festival in Beijing, China.

Among traditional marching bands, the Marching Blue Thunder is currently ranked number two in the United States and in the Southeast, number one in the South, and the number one ranked "High Stepping" high school marching band in Georgia. The band earns thousands of dollars annually in scholarship and tuition funds.

Athletics

The Redan baseball program has a history of producing competitive athletes that reach elite levels of play. In 2013, the Raiders baseball program won the 4A State Championship. This makes the Raiders the first team made up of only African Americans to win a baseball state championship in the state.

The school's Lady Raiders basketball team won the 5A State Championship in 2009 and 2014.
