text: In the end having to participate in an extracurricular activity might be more beneficial than it sounds. It gives the students a chance to experience new things and learn more about themselves. While at the same time making new friends and having plenty of fun in the process. It also gives them practice for future jobs by helping improving their skills and just giving them a chance to practice those skills. Another benefit can be for students that already have extracurricular activities because they already know they have fun with it and can help others who do not know what to do for their activities. In conclusion extracurricular activities are very useful whether its to make get practice, find new hobbies, or just continue doing what they love most. I agree that students should have an extracurricular activity. It can help them stay active, and also help the school out a lot. Having an extracurricular activity means having a extra thing to do in school that you like that will provide for the school; like for an example: being the school announcer in the morning it's something that you like that will provide for the school and it is why students should have an extracurricular activity.
