In 2001, the high school received a makeover. The most notable changes were: the addition of a new auditorium, eight new classrooms, new band and choir rooms, and a second gym with a balcony. The class of 2007 was the 50th class to graduate from Lisle Senior High School, and the class of 2016 graduated with a class of about 135 students.

In 2017, Lisle had an average composite ACT score of 25 and graduated 96% of its senior class. Lisle has made Adequate Yearly Progress on the Prairie State Achievements Examination, a state test part of the No Child Left Behind Act. [5]

The girls' soccer team placed 4th in state in the 2010, 2012, and 2019 seasons. The scholastic bowl team at Lisle has won 2 state championships in a row (in 2010 and 2011), earning the school's first state title in 25 years. In 2013, the boys' baseball team won the class 2A State Title. Lisle's dance team also placed 11th in the 2A division at the 2016 state dance competition. Lisle is well known for its competitive wrestling team, which has sent many wrestlers to the state competition.


Correction: The Lisle Senior High School Chess Team won the first ISHA State Team Championship in 1972. Two of the members of the team won individual State Championships. The only defeat came when the team narrowly lost to the National Champions, a school with an enrollment of over five times the size of LSHS. The 1973 Chess Team took Third Place, with one team member winning another Individual State Championship. This was done during the height of chess popularity, when such notables as Bobby Fischer and Boris Spasky ruled the game.
