Red Wing competes in the Missota Conference and Region IAA of the Minnesota State High School League. The school colors are purple and white. Uniforms and school logos typically include red as an accent and the sports teams are known as the Red Wing Wingers. Many students recognize purple, red and white as the school colors, but red is only included due to the name of the city. The school's hockey program was started in 1974 by Jim Pohl. Led by John Pohl, the Wingers won the boys' state championship in 1997. John Pohl is second place for the all-time scoring record for Minnesota High School Hockey.

Famous quotes containing the words performing arts, activities, performing and/or arts:

In order to justify their jobs, working mothers can overnurture, overconnect with, and overschedule their children into activities and classes. Similarly, some at-home mothers,... can make at- home mothering into a bigger deal than it is, over stimulating, overeducating, and overwhelming their children with purposeful attention.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
“And no one, it seemed, had had the presence of mind

From the number it was backing away from as it stopped:
It was performing prettily; the puncture stayed unseen....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Hardly any human being is capable of pursuing two professions or two arts rightly.”
