text: Students should have the choice to do an activity or not, and that is their choice not the principles or the schools. If their friends are doing an activity great, but it is what their friends wants to do not what the students has or wants to do. The students gets to decide what to do, and not what their friends or principle wants the to do at school. It is their choice on what they can and can not do with their free time. The students are already stressed enough, and especially when they are getting ready for a big test. Students want to get good grades on test like a state assessment. Band, orchestra, and chorus sometimes have trips that they take, and assessments. It is up not to the schools staff, but to the students themselves on what they want to do.
