Our mission is to increase school pride by offering an exciting variety of spirit wear and fan gear options.
We started on this journey two years ago. We have put in the work and we are the first class at WGHS to have completed the Marketing pathway.
We want to leave a foundation where other students like us can learn how to do market research, create designs, select products, and deliver products and services that meet the needs of our target market.
See more of our story below in the timeline and why we do what we do through the FAQs.
