At WKHS you are blessed to have a wide range of activities that you can choose to be involved with based upon your interests. Whether it is athletics, music groups, theater, clubs, or community service outreach opportunities, every student can find a place where they can contribute and belong. And, in the off chance that there is not a group that you are interested in, it is also possible that you can work with a staff member to establish your own group.
You can stop by the co-curricular office at WKHS to be able to see a list of all of the different activities available and the advisers of each group. There is also an option to be able to fill out a slip to leave for the adviser to express your interest in joining the group.
Sometimes students or parents will talk about their belief that colleges want to see students who are involved in a ton of activities. What is more important than just being a part of a lot of activities is that students find areas of passion and pursue those areas with focus and long term dedication.
As you are considering your areas of involvement and how you can get involved, remember it is far more important that you are involved because it is meaningful to you rather than because it will "look good" on a college application!
