Contents
The school, which serves students in grades 9-12, had an enrollment of 74 students as of 2003-2004, according to CCD data and an 11.6 student to teacher ratio. The school's student body for that year was 58% Caucasian, 34% Native American, 5% Asian, and 3% African American.
The school is outside a CBSA and thus classified rural by the United States Census Bureau.
Mascot
HSHS's team mascot is "Savage Heat." For many years, the mascot was simply "Savages," but in the wake of a 2000 Tribal Council Resolution denouncing the use of Native Americans as mascots, the Hot Springs school board agreed in 2007 to rename the team.
Notable alumni
Hot Springs is home to former olympic javelin thrower Todd Reich. Mr. Reich is considered to be one of 50 greatest athletes in Montana history. It is also home of former Air Force Thunderbirds leader Col. Larry Stellmon.
