text: Students that already have activities before and/or after school will find it harder to participate in the activities listed by the principal. If conflicts were to occur in ones schedule, by perhaps reducing study time, discombobulating meal times, effecting sleep, conflicting with appointments, etc, the negative effects on a students general academics and personal life could be great. Foresay, a student may have a doctors appointment immediately after school, but also have to attend an important meeting with the student council at the same time. If this were to occur, how would the student respond to either missing the appointment, or missing the meeting? There would be consequences for both since the principal made participating in these extracurricular activities mandatory.
