Friends of Rachel Club

A “pay it forward” type of attitude can go a long way. This community service, character-building club is based on the ideas of Rachel Scott, a victim of the Columbine tragedy. All middle school students will be given exposure to what Friends of Rachel will be involved in and can sign up to help. Activities include the Warrior Walk, coat drive, preparing food for Shelters of Saratoga, and more.

They will send their Pokemon into battle to prove who is the best Pokemon trainer. Please note: space is limited.

No Place for Hate

No Place for Hate is a club that strives to create and maintain an inclusive and equitable school climate. We do so by empowering students, faculty, administration and family members to take action against bias and bullying. Throughout the year we coordinate three activities that examine identities, reflect on biased behaviors and learn new ways to challenge bias and bullying in themselves and others. We send a clear, unified message that all students have a place where they belong.

SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions)

SADD is a peer leadership organization that supports one another in making positive choices in our lives. We provide information to the student body stressing the impact of underage drinking, drunk driving, drug abuse and other destructive decisions.

Student Council

Student Council is a student-run government with officers and duties to provide members with experience, leadership roles and community involvement. They are a service-oriented club with school-related projects such as bake sales for the Warrior Walk.

Tech Club

The technology club will meet throughout the year in a computer lab. The purpose of the club is to engage students in creating computing. Scratch is a programming language and online community where you can create your own interactive stories, games and animations and share your creations with others around the world. In the process of designing and programming Scratch projects, students learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively.

Teen Scene

Teen Scene is an after-school activity that takes place at various times throughout the year. For a small fee, students can stay after and participate in activities like Wii sports, crafts, movies, dancing and more!

Trap Club

Trap shooting is a coed and adaptive activity for safety-certified students in grades 7 through 12. Stillwater Trap Club’s priorities are safety, fun and marksmanship, in that order. The Club encourages beginners and promises no benchwarmers – Every student on the team gets to participate in all League events and tournaments.
