Oak Park also offers Advanced Placement (AP) courses and one of the most comprehensive fine arts programs in the province.[1] The Oak Park Raiders have won 3 Manitoba High School Athletics Association titles over the past decade, the most in Winnipeg.[1]
Oak Park High School has one of the best athletic programs in the province. As a regular contender in many sports, Oak Park has made their mark on the sport community. Oak Park took eight provincial titles in 2010-2011 and was provincial finalists in Varsity Girls Basketball and Girls Outdoor Soccer. The school offers an extensive list of extracurriculars, including: basketball, darts, football, hockey, soccer (indoor and outdoor), volleyball, rugby, cheerleading, ultimate frisbee, water polo, track & field, badminton, student council, musical, dance, curling and field lacrosse.

Success has been harder to come by in recent seasons as the MHSAA tightened transfer and recruiting policies.
