text: Students have a lot of things to accomplish every day, especially school work. After a long and stressful day at school, going to participate in an extracurricular activity is perfect. Kids need time to just be kids and have a little fun. I think that all the students having to do an extracurricular activity is a great idea and would bring the school closer together. I also think it's a great way to just get away from everything. Have a little fun, meet new people, and try new things.
