Getting involved is the first step towards having a successful and satisfying experience. Getting the most out of this experience is directly related to an organized program, strong leadership by the sponsor or coach along with the commitment of the student. Each student's commitment to an activity or a team can be fun and can open up opportunities for interesting and unique experiences only associated with these co-curricular programs.
Students learn to work together in a band or on a yearbook staff.
They can develop leadership skills as a club officer or newspaper editor. They learn to make decisions voting for class officers or serving on student council. These skills will be essential for a demanding future. Co-curricular activities certainly can provide opportunities for students, teachers, administrators, and individuals not directly associated with the school to interact and learn from each other.
