Extracurricular activities help student learn the values of competition, teamwork, individual initiative, and group responsibility, sense of community, endurance, diversity and even interpersonal communication skills.

Does participation in extracurricular activities improve students’ performance in school?

The National Education Longitudinal Study (NELS), a brief that explores relationship between extracurricular activities and participation in school, suggests that extracurricular activity is positively associated with consistent attendance, higher academic performance and a strong desire among high school seniors to continue their education after high school. In fact, high school seniors who regularly participated in extracurricular activities reported the best class attendance–with over half reporting no unexcused absences and having never skipped a class. Compare this with only one-third of nonparticipating students reporting having no unexcused absences and only two-fifths reporting having never skipped a class. When compared with students who did not participate in extracurricular activities, participating students were three times as likely to be in the top 25% of their class in both math and reading assessment. The brief also showed that roughly two-thirds of students who participated in extracurricular activities were expected to completed a college degree, while only fifty percent students who didn’t participate in extracurricular activities where expects to go on to college.

(Note: The data provided by the NELS brief does not conclusively show that participation in extracurricular activities leads to success in high school. It can also be argued that successful students are more likely to participate in extracurricular activities than unsuccessful students.)

The various clubs and sporting activities gives leverage to each child to spend some extra hours in the school premises and develop their interest and get professional help. Thus the child does not have to seek outside help and spend time after school looking for tuitions or professional coaching classes.
