Rivalries
Thanks to the circumstances surrounding College Station High School's opening, the school can be considered to rival three other high schools. The first, A&M Consolidated High School is the only other high school in the city of College Station, and was the only one until CSHS opened in the 2012-2013 school year. In the first year of AMCHS and CSHS's rivalry Second, Bryan High School, is the namesake school of College Station's sister city: Bryan, Texas. The third and final high school rival is James Earl Rudder High School, which, like College Station High School, is the second high school in its city (Bryan, TX) and the more modern of the two. In effect, all of the College Station-Bryan area's high schools rival the others: Bryan, TX with Bryan High School, and James Earl Rudder High School, as well as College Station, TX with A&M Consolidated and College Station High School.

College Station High School supports a very active and growing Color Guard program. The Color Guard, known as the "sport of the arts," is one of the fastest growing activities in today's high schools.
