text: Joining an extracurricular gives you a great learning experience. One of the benefits is new knowledge. Extracurricular activities teach you things that you would not learn in class, and that can be useful later. Some people argue that students will not have time for an extracurricular activity to be added to their schedule. However, classes can be adjusted so students have time for the activity if that is really the case. In most cases, students need better time management. They can learn this as they will need to be able to balance their schoolwork, their extracurricular, and anything else they may need to do regularly. Students will learn to manage their time wisely as a result of the added extracurricular, which is another benefit they will receive. Being apart of an extracurricular can also improve students' social skills. It gives you the opportunity to learn how to work responsibly and productively with others. Extracurricular activities give you new knowledge, time management skills, and social skills, which makes being apart of one a great learning experience.
