text: Extracurricular activities allow students to choose the activities that interest them, for example, if someone likes sports they might choose volleyball. If another student is more interested in theater, they might audition for the musical. The wide selection of activities would be good for students as they are figuring out their interests, as well. These students can try multiple different activities until they find the right one. Having an activity that is enjoyable is very important, as it makes you more inclined to learn. Therefore having an after school activity provides that inclination to learn.
