[[Alberton School]] began as a wooden, one room school house in the early 1900s. In 1916, a fire burned down the original school. In 1920, a new brick building was built; this later became the elementary school building. The brick building is listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]].<ref>Information from a linked document listing Historic Sites in Mineral County. [http://mhs.mt.gov/shpo/nationalreg.asp#Montana Historical Society - National Register of Historic Places]</ref> The current high school building is 50 feet from the elementary building and is roughly octagonal in shape. Both buildings have two stories and are connected by a tunnel. The school's mascot is the Panther,<ref>{{cite web |title=Member Schools |url=https://www.mhsa.org/memberschools |publisher=Montana High School Association |access-date=April 19, 2021}}</ref> and the school has football, volleyball, boys' and girls' basketball, and track and field on campus. The school also participates in wrestling, tennis, and golf as part of cooperatives with other schools in the area. The school transferred from eight-man to six-man football in 2010.
