What is the WHS Booster Club? A group of Wheatland High School (WHS) parents that meet monthly and through: fund raising, volunteerism, and event planning, support WHS extra curricular activities. The boosters organize the Booster Dinner, Grad Night, sports award nights, snack bars, spirit sales, etc. Participation in the club is free, there are no membership dues. Meetings are held in the library. Fundraising from the Booster Clubs supports: sports programs, student leadership, FFA, drama/band, and (if approved by the Boosters) any other school organization that applies for financial assistance.

Why should you join? The booster club is a way to stay involved in your student's education and have a voice in the way booster money will be spent. We understand that as parents of teenagers it becomes harder and harder to stay abreast of what's going on with our kids. This is a chance to learn more about WHS. Also to ensure we meet the needs of all students we need their voices represented, through their parents, at booster meetings. This is not just a club for "sports parents".

What will be expected of you? Monthly meetings will be held the first Monday of the month at 7:00 PM. Grad Night meetings follow booster meetings. Committees will be chosen to plan specific events, volunteers will be recruited and fundraisers will be planned.  You will be asked to participate at whatever level you have time for. We understand that we are all very busy and time is at a premium. At this point the only expectation is, that you attend as many monthly meetings as you can. This will ensure your voice is heard, and your vote is counted. We look forward to meeting you and hearing your ideas!

Make a difference for students at Wheatland High School.  Areas where Boosters support the quality of education at WHS:

Enrichment: Funds field trips & other needs for student clubs & organizations.

Scholarships: Funds student grants and scholarships at graduation time.

Awards & Trophies: Funds academic, performing arts, and athletic awards.

Athletics: Funds needs of the athletic department not covered by the school budget.
