text: If some students play sports, it will make them late for practices and games. Additionally, if you are a bit competitive and you play against someone during your activity, it could cause a lot more fights and even school suspension, if it goes too far. Students shouldn't be forced to do something that they don't want to do. Some students even like to go out to dinner with family and friends. Also, if they have lots of schoolwork to catch up on and their activity takes away their time to make it up, it can put pressure on students' when their work just piles up even more. For those reasons, after school activities should be eliminated for all schools. It can also take away students attention in class and cause them to lose focus, as well as, cause learning disabilities because they don't have the time to learn it in class. Stress can also cause students to want to miss school because they are overwhelmed with school work. If students don't want to participate, then don't force them.
