The Hopi Bruins' boys' and girls' teams are a prominent activity at the school. Running is deeply rooted in the northern Arizona tribe's tradition as a way to carry messages and bless the reservation with rain. The boys currently have a total of 27 straight state championships, which is the national record according to the National Federation of State High School Associations, while the girls currently have 22 state titles.[10]

History

The school's 1987 opening gave the Hopi community its first reservation high school and allowed for the closure of the Phoenix Indian School. For most of its history, it has been the only high school in Keams Canyon.[note 1]

For a time in the late 1990s and 2000s, the school was a public charter, though it changed back to a BIE school in 2005.[citation needed]

In November 2013, Charles Youvella, a running back and defensive back for Hopi's football team, incurred a head injury during a Division V playoff game against the team from Arizona Lutheran Academy; he lined up for two more plays, then collapsed on the field. He was in critical condition by the time he reached St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix and died two days later.[11]
