Since the athletic facilities were not finished, football and basketball games were played at Boone County High School.

Conner High School opened its doors for the first time on October 15, 1970, with less than 60 students in grades 10–12.

Among the members of the first coaching staff was Wayne Badida, who continues to direct a very fine wrestling program.

Today, with an enrollment over 1300, a comprehensive, fully accredited high school curriculum, extra curricular and athletic programs are offered.

Conner High School is active in a variety of men's and women's athletics.
