Get Involved in an Extracurricular Activity
-
Students are encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities. To learn more about a club or activity, select the name in the drop-down below.
Student-led clubs are initiated, created, and led by students at each individual school campus where the club is active. A student who wishes to organize a non-school sponsored, student-led club must obtain prior written consent from the school principal. These clubs are not governed by school officials, but a club monitor is present at the time of student-led club meetings held on school campuses. Parents or legal guardians must complete and sign the permission form to participate in a student-led club before their child may participate.
Visit WCS Board Policy 6.702 for detailed guidelines and rules about school-sponsored and student-led clubs, activities and organizations. Parents or legal guardians must notify an administrator in writing if the student is not permitted to become a member or participate in any activities of a club or organization. Pursuant to state law, the written communication shall be signed and dated by the parent or legal guardian.
