Scholars Bowl is an academic competitive team. Two teams compete answering  questions on all general subjects, including literature; history; science and math; social sciences; fine arts; geography; religion, mythology, and philosophy; and general knowledge. Each game is played with a packet of questions, which a moderator reads and students use a buzzer set to answer timed questions. For tournament purposes, a format covers rules of play and question structure/content. For questions, this includes question topics, clue difficulty, order of clues, and writing style. Rules of play include player eligibility, scoring of questions, acceptable answers, and procedures for protesting a question.

WCS has a middle school and high school scholars bowl team. The middle school team participates in competitions with area middle schools and the district competition. The varsity team competes in area tournaments and district competitions. Teams meet daily during enrichment during the school year.

Both teams are coached by Dr. Barbara Dorsett.
