Sports
The athletics teams are the Patriots. In the past ten years[when?], the Patriot sport programs have achieved more success than in all the school's prior years combined. Some of these noteworthy accomplishments include:
- Boys' basketball - winning the Section 7AA title to achieve the school's first ever State Tournament berth after an 11-12 regular season in 2004, then going 28-0 in 2006 before losing in the State quarterfinals. In 2007, the Patriots again won the Section 7AA title and finished third in Class AA with victories over Gibbon-Fairfax-Winthrop and Luverne and a loss to the eventual State Runner-up, Maple River.
- Girls' basketball - qualifying for the State Tournament in 1998, 1999 and 2005 when they took second place. They also traveled to the State tournament in 2010 and 2011, where they finished fourth.
- Girls' golf - winning two Class A State Championships, the first in 2002 and the second in 2004.
- Knowledge Bowl - qualifying for the Minnesota State Knowledge Bowl Meet in 1998, 2000, 2003 and 2004, winning the school's first ever Region 5 Championship in 2003, finishing fifth at State in 2004 and most recently conference champions and section runner-up in 2014.
- Dance team - qualifying for the MSHSL State Tournament nine years in a row (2000 - 2009), finishing second in the jazz/funk category in 2001 and third in jazz/funk in 2002.
