Triton Senior High School
Triton High School, located in Dodge Center, Minnesota, was established in 1990 when the communities of Dodge Center, West Concord and Claremont, combined to create one high school and junior high school. Each town continued to operate separate elementary schools. The newly-created high school was housed in the former Dodge Center High School building and the junior high school was housed in the former West Concord High School building. Former Dodgers, Cardinals and Parrots, the first Triton Cobra seniors, graduated in 1991.
Triton's mascot is the Cobra and colors are maroon and gray. Triton's school song is I'm a Jayhawk, official rouser of the University of Kansas.
A bond referendum was passed in 1996 to build an addition to the high school building in Dodge Center, adding Triton Primary School and additional high school space, which opened in the fall of 1998. Later, Triton relocated its junior high (middle school) from West Concord to Dodge Center and officially opened in the fall of 2009. Additional space was added and renovations were made in 2012 as the Triton community continued to grow.

Famous quotes containing the words triton, senior, high and/or school:
“I’d rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When we are high and airy hundreds say
That if we hold that flight they’ll leave the place,
While those same hundreds mock another day
Because we have made our art of common things ...”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Out of life’s school of war.—What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
