Boys Soccer State Semi-Final Game

Woodbury High School will play Wayzata on Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at 8:00 AM in the Boys Soccer semi-final state tournament game at US Bank Stadium.

Parents/guardians may excuse their student to attend the game.

The school day will continue as normal with our regular schedule for all other students.

Parents, by purchasing a bus ticket, you are approving your child’s absence and you do not need to call the Attendance Office.

If your child is not riding the bus, parents must excuse students from school by either calling the attendance office at 651-425-4400 or using the Absence Request tool in Campus Parent Portal to submit a request to the attendance office prior to the game. For directions on how to submit an online absence request, please follow the link HERE.

1. Purchase a ticket to ride the bus online HERE. Log in, select WHS Soccer Fan Bus. The cost to ride the bus is $8. If your student will not be taking the bus, this step can be skipped.
   To take the student fan bus, you must register and pay by Friday, Oct. 27 at 1 PM
2. If you take the bus, you must take the bus both ways. We can’t make special arrangements for the large number of students we have attending the game.

3. There will be no refunds if you cancel your bus registration.

4. Purchase a state soccer ticket online HERE. Do not purchase a ticket unless you have secured transportation to the game or have registered for the fan bus. If you are on the waitlist for the fan bus, only purchase a ticket once you have received word from the Activities Office that you are on a fan bus.

5. If your student is NOT riding the bus, parent/guardian must excuse students from school by either calling the attendance office at 651-425-4400 or use the Absence Request tool in Campus Parent Portal to submit a request to the attendance office prior to the game. For directions on how to submit an online absence request, please follow the link HERE. Please contact attendance ASAP to help determine the number of chaperones needed to adequately supervise the game.

Chartered bus services will be contracted for student fan buses to and from the game. The cost to ride the charter bus will be $8 per student and must be registered and paid for by 1:00 PM on Friday, Oct 27, 2023. This is a non refundable fee. Students are not required to take the fan bus, however we are providing it as an option. Unfortunately, we need to have students purchase a bus ticket because we are contracting a charter bus service as our own district buses are not available due to the fact that they have their normal morning academic routes.

• Students registered to take the fan bus must provide their own transportation to Woodbury High School in the morning by 7 AM.

• Tickets to attend the game must be purchased if a student is going to register for the fan bus.

• The buses will depart from the north side of the school at 7:15 AM. The buses will return immediately following the game.

• Students will be assigned a bus and a chaperone to and from the game.

• Attendance will be taken for students to get on the bus, going to US Bank Stadium and returning to school.

• Students will be assigned to a bus alphabetically.

• Students must return to their assigned bus immediately following the game.

• Any students who are missing after the game will receive a parent call to ensure they return to their bus. Student may NOT make alternate arrangements home.

• Band and Cheer members do not need to register for a student fan bus.

• An email will be sent to all individuals registered to take a bus with more instructions on Tuesday, October 31, 2023.

If we do not have enough students registered to take the bus, the bus will be canceled and money refunded. Students then wanting to attend the game would have to provide their own transportation to the game.

We will return to school at approximately 10:30 AM.
