Wheatland Union High School's Game Club is a student-run club which focuses on creating an environment for those who enjoy playing video games. Students who need a place to relax can play a wide variety of games from board/card games to video games. The club also puts a priority on academics with their top policy being that students are NOT allowed to play video games unless they possess a 2.5 GPA or higher; however, they are allowed to play board and card games until they improve their grades. This acts as an incentive for students to put their grades first so they may enjoy the benefits of the club. We do require an hour of study after school for students to get help with our tutors before moving on to games. Snacks are provided by the Afterschool Program.     

The club is supervised by our English department head, Mrs. Morales and works with the Afterschool program in having on site afterschool tutors to assist students in HW help and studying. Game Club meets after school Mondays through Wednesdays (except on minimum days) from 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm. We also hold official member meetings every other Wednesday to discuss upcoming events and fundraiser ideas. Come check us out!
