text: On the other hand, a lot of schools are not making kids take an extracurricular activity. They think that the students dont have do if they dont want to. I can see where their coming from and they have a good point. You dont have to do something if you dont like it, but it is always good to try something new. Generic_School reported that over 25% of schools dont have their students taking an extracurricular activity. They said that they wanted to focus more on their education instead. I dont take pride in what other people thoughts and beliefs are, but I know for a fact that kids must do a extracurricular activity. It makes more sense, you want your students to be more involved with your school, and you want them to do something that they might actually like. I know that at Generic_School in Texas has yearbook activities, and they found that over half of their school is doing that, because they love it and they want to pursue making designs and other things like that.
