There are many thousands of high school bands found in the United States alone. There are many more band found across the world.
Thousands. Almost every university has a marching band. Almost all high schools have Marching Bands--even in cities of less than 3,000 people.

The East Ascension High School Marching Band participates annually in marching band competitions. They have participated in many parades including the Disney World Easter Parade. The high school is located in Gonzales, Louisiana.
As many as you want.
UGA's marching band is the Redcoat band. http://www.uga.edu/~ugabands/redcoats/
It depends on what criteria you are looking at. In the UIL State Marching Contest, Marcus High School, from Flowermound, has shown dominance since 2006. In the Bands of America competition, the most competitive circuit for high school marching bands, many schools have come out on top, most recently Johnson High School, from San Antonio. Many bands, however have been on top at this competition, including Reagan, LD Bell, The Woodlands, and even Marcus. In conclusion, in terms of overall dominance, one could say that Marcus is the best. In terms of overall consistency since the school's opening, Reagan would probably be considered the best.
The John Philip Sousa Band Award is the pinnacle of achievement for high school band students. Created in 1955, the award honors the top student in a high-school band and recognizes superior musicianship and outstanding dedication. It was developed with the cooperation of Helen Sousa Albert and Priscilla Sousa, daughters of the famous composer and bandmaster.

(assuming I read the question correctly) there are 25 boys and 75 girls.
One year we had 10 girls. So I guess it depends on how many tryout and are good enough to make the squad.
As many as you want.
As many as the band director want! It just depends on how many he/she would like!

36 trumpets
Typically they would play the school fight song, and perhaps The Star Spangled Banner. They would likely play many other songs as well. However, I'm afraid that no specific song has ever been universally performed by every high school marching band in the country.

Imagine a big band performance. The beautifully complicated music is a result of the many players who make up the band.
