The school's short flags squad is the first to "three-peat" four times at the United Spirit Association (USA) Nationals — three times in 2-Flag (1986, 1987, 1988; 2001, 2002, 2003; 2009, 2010, 2011), as well as once in 1-Flag (2011, 2012,[10] 2013[11]). CIHS is also the most decorated pep flags team in the history of Miss Dance Drill Team USA (MDDTUSA), having won seven world championships (1985, 1987, 2001, 2003, 2010, 2012, 2013) and 35 national titles in two- and one-flag divisions (1985–2018). The team has also implemented changing their flags in a "flag-change", much like what is seen in a colorguard or winterguard routine.

The school's drill teams have also earned championships for the school. The co-ed dance team won MDDTUSA titles in 2013,[11] 2014,[12] and 2018 (large division).[13] Hip hop dance teams won championships in 2014 (female, medium division)[12] and 2018 (male, small).[13] Small military won a title in 2014.[12]
