text: The final issue this rule has relates back to the second. Do you know what happens when you force a bunch of teenagers into extracurricular activities they do not care about? You get lazy members of clubs and sports teams full of students who don't want to be there. Just because the principal can make students participate in school activities does not mean he can make them care. This rule will result in students joining clubs and teams not for the fun of it, but because they have to. This will not only be unpleasant for the kids who have to do activities they don't care about, but for kids who actually want to be in the clubs. It is not fun to play soccer if half the kids on your team could not care less if you win or lose. By forcing everyone in to an extracurricular you will be ruining them for everyone.
