text: During summer, students should be able to be independent in their own ideas and thinking regarding school material. Schools and administration should grant students that independence in their individual learning and let them take the initiative of showing what they know, how they can form ideas and prove their overall independence in designing their own summer projects as they grow in their school careers.Many students engage in school activities. The athletes play sports after school, the drama kids join plays, and book clubs meet up after school to discuss their book. I think that students should participate in an extracurricular activity. Students participating in an extracurricular activity is a phenomenal idea because it is a good way for the student to take a break from school work, the student is doing something they enjoy, and their activity could help the student later on in life.
