FIRST Robotics

Hollis/Brookline's FIRST Robotics Team 1073, also known as the FORCE Team, was established in 2002. It remains one of the most competitive teams in the region.[7] Along with numerous technical courses, the FIRST team makes its home in a pair of classrooms known as the Tech Center, which consists of one classroom is full of computers for the students and a modest but well-equipped machine shop. At the end of the 2013-2014 school year, the team's machine shop was relocated to Hollis/Brookline Middle School, though the team is still associated with the high school.

Granite State Challenge

The 2008-2009 Hollis/Brookline Granite State Challenge team won the annual tournament, defeating the private Phillips Exeter Academy. It was the second time in school history that the Hollis/Brookline team competed in the Granite State Challenge final (known as the Superchallenge), losing to Phillips Exeter in the 1985 final.

Hollis Brookline Excalibur

The Hollis Broookline Excalibur is the Yearbook for the school. It is done by the Yearbook Club and it is sold every year to students and faculty. The covers are chosen by the editors, and are usually student made.

Student government

The HBHS Student Council, often referred to as "grand council" or simply "the council", is a governing organization of elected student representatives advised by Social Studies staff member Jenifer Given. The council is recently credited with a successful three-year campaign to readjust the cooperative school system's start times from 7:15 a.m to 7:40 a.m, having been led by past student body president Maggie O'Hara throughout her tenure at the school, finally succeeding in late spring 2017.

As of August 31, 2017, Hollis Brookline High School's student government was redesigned in the wake of the adoption of amendments to the HBHS Constitution.[8] Designed by then-student body president Patrick Bloniasz, the council was divided into a tiered system that allowed for more work to be done on behalf of the student body. Changes include the creation of the Student Activities Committee, which was designed to be a driving force in the development of the high school's coveted "Spirit Week" and related recreational activities, as well as the Policy Committee, which focuses on improving educational policy, curricula, and related matters. As of 2017, the policy committee was working on instituting a peer-to-peer mentorship program and improving environmental sustainability in the school's lunchroom.{{Citation needed|date=December 2017}}
