The physical education department recently attempted to add water polo, but was unable to add the school to any competitions. The varsity baseball won the California Interscholastic Federation-Southern Section Championship in 2009 and 2010. Swimming has won several individual or relay events.
Junior high students can compete in a variety of intramural sports against other schools in the Anaheim Union High School District.
