Clubs and Activities

    The Art Club offers all Wickenburg High School students the opportunity to come into the art studio and get creative. Several times per year, the club gathers to create a 1-4 hour project in drawing, painting or ceramics. Some are art students seeking more time in the studio, or enjoying a new technique or medium. Many students are not current art students, due to their course schedules, and enjoy this opportunity to participate in art. As a department, WHS art students participate in several events each year, including Cowgirl Up! At the Desert Caballeros Western Museum, Wrangler Artist of the Month also at DCWM, the Congressional Art competition, and a year-end Art Show in the Del E Webb center. These events give students the opportunity to interact with the public, and receive professional feedback on their artwork. Art Club participants have the option to be involved in these events.  But it is truly a place to go and be creative.

E-Sports - Competitive Team

Our E-Sports Competitive Team allows students to turn their passion for gaming into a competitive and rewarding experience. Members will train, compete, and work together to improve their skills both in and out of the game.

Students will learn and master communication, teamwork, leadership, strategic thinking, problem-solving, decision-making, adaptability, time management, and goal setting. In-game, they will develop strategy, focus, game awareness, teamwork, and the ability to perform under pressure. Outside the game, members will build discipline, accountability, sportsmanship, professionalism, resilience, and confidence.

Through practices and competitions, students will learn to set goals, analyze performance, accept feedback, and work together toward success—skills that can benefit them in school, future careers, and everyday life.

 Student Council is a group of students who work together to make our school a better and more connected place. We help plan school events, build school spirit, support our classmates and staff, and come up with ideas to improve our campus.

Being part of StuCo is a chance to meet new people, make a difference, have fun, and be involved in what happens at our school. You don't have to be the loudest person or have all the ideas. We need students who are willing to show up, work together, and make things happen.

   The Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts is sponsoring an after-school club in conjunction with Wickenburg High School. The Theatre Ninja Club is for 9-12th grade students who are interested in the technical side of the performing arts. The goal of the club is to engage students in the technical aspects of live productions and allow them to apply those skills in a professional performing arts theatre. The students  spend time learning lighting design, sound engineering, set design, and other stagehand roles. Participants are becoming proficient in the technical aspects of running a theatre and have begun working on school performances such as the Choir concert and WHS Fall Play. Ninjas also have the opportunity to shadow alongside the Webb Center staff during many of their professional touring performances. 

 The Rifle Club was started in 1995 with the goal of exposing students to the safe handling of firearms and to offer a sport for those students that may not be your typical athlete. They started with 22 rimfire rifles, but the cost of the specialized equipment meant they had to keep their membership numbers low. They switched to "Across the Course" matches and are very competitive at the national level. Desiring more student participation, the club now shoots "F-class", which is a much more precision-oriented type of competition and allows even more students to participate.  The club now holds numerous national records in that discipline.

Yearbook gives students the chance to capture the memories, events, and people that make our school special. Students take photos, write stories, design pages, and work together to create a yearbook that represents the school year.

Through Yearbook, students build skills in photography, writing, design, teamwork, and organization while getting involved in events and activities around campus. It’s a fun way to be creative, meet new people, and help create something students can look back on for years to come.
