Athletics
Madison competes in athletics in IHSAA Class 5A with the largest schools in the state. It is a member of the High Country Conference (5A) with Bonneville, Rigby, Hillcrest, and Highland of Pocatello.
With one of the smaller enrollments in 5A, Madison has moved up or down in classification several times over the decades. The Bobcats have won a number of state championships in both boys and girls sports.[5]
The 2012 football team went undefeated (12–0) to win its seventh state football title, its first in Class 5A, defeating Coeur d'Alene High School 37–30 at Holt Arena in Pocatello, Idaho.[6][7]
