text: Another reason to support extracurricular activities is it improves students home and school life. Students can earn better grades because others, their teachers or coaches for example, will encourage it. Some activities require good grades in order to do them. Less fortunate students could escape to their activities to forget problems they may have at home. Additionally, students can have trusted relationships with adults in their activities so if they have problems, they can talk to them about it. Students need to have good home and school lives now so they can focus on their future. An extracurricular activity can help them do that.
