Service and Special Interests Clubs

Art Club is a social club that meets once a week in the art room. During this weekly meeting, students hang out with other kids who have similar interests, share drawings, work on projects, fund raise for field trips, and occasionally participate in contests or group projects like a school mural. Meetings are weekly all year.

We try to educate and bring awareness to the large variety of Asian ethnic groups. We also have created a social network of the Asian students and their allies within our school. Meetings are often weekly, but there are occasional schedule changes. During the 19-20 school year, meetings are Tuesdays from 3:00 to 4:30 followed by the free dinner together at SW.

From our solar system to the unending space of the universe, there are many mysteries to discover.  Want to learn more, want to find out what hides in this infinite void? Want to do hands-on activities and have fun learning about what's past this pale blue dot we call home?  Join Astronomy Club, a student-run club that talks about everything relating to space!  We meet in room 2410 on the first Wednesday of each month after school and the 3rd Friday during advisory!  Everyone is welcome to join!

The Chemistry Club members are the students on the Southwest Science Academic Team. All students on the Southwest Science Academic Team have demonstrated outstanding skills in biology, chemistry and physics. Meetings are during the spring semester, twice a month, on Tuesday mornings.  In April the team meetings every Tuesday until the completion at UWGB in April.

Fellowship of Christian Athletes is open to all students wishing to meet, interact, and explore their Christian faith with their peers. The purpose is to join together for treats, fun and games, singing, and discussing together how our Christian faith impacts our own lives.  A few short readings, bible verses, and questions are discussed, and we also close with a prayer.  Meetings last 60-90 minutes.  All are welcome. Meetings are twice monthly, on Sunday nights, throughout the school year, at an advisor's or student's home. 

The FEA exposes students to the teaching profession by immersing them in the classroom setting as well as the surrounding teaching institutions:  UWGB, NWTC, and St. Norbert University.  Through guest speakers, classroom observations, and field trips, students begin to lay a foundation from which to build their career.  Students interested in any and all levels of education are welcome to attend. Meetings are every 3rd Thursday of the month but are adjusted accordingly to align with the schedule of the school year.

Fox River Monitoring is a club for students interested in science and nature. In partnership with UW- Green Bay, we go out three times a year, spring, summer, and fall, and monitor stream water quality. We have two stream sites near Southwest that we drive to and complete water quality tests and collect water samples.  Then, we come back to Southwest and test the samples we’ve collected in the laboratory.

We test streamflow, turbidity, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen levels, nitrate levels, ammonia levels, and phosphorus levels.  In the summer, we also collect data on the stream’s biodiversity levels.

In March, we have a full day field trip and we attend a Water Symposium at UWGB.  We get to see a variety of presentations and we present the data we’ve collected.  We also get a tour of some part of the campus and participate in a quiz bowl.

We also grow wild rice in the classroom/greenhouse and have a half day field trip in May to plant our wild rice in Barkhausen Waterfowl Preserve to help restore native populations of the species. Students are able to earn service learning hours for their work.

GSA at Southwest is a club that provides a safe space for LGBTQ+ students and their allies. The purpose is to provide a supportive environment for our students to socialize, receive support, and organize around issues that affect them. Research shows that GSAs in schools can positively impact the academic, health, and social experiences of LGBTQ+ students and improve the overall school climate. We welcome any Southwest student to join GSA at any point throughout the school year!
