Benefits of Extracurricular Activities
St. Augustine’s School seeks to develop the whole child and in this effort, there are numerous clubs and activities available to the students. Participating in extracurricular activities helps you in many ways. Research has shown that students involved in extracurricular activities receive higher grades than those not involved in activities. A myriad of components contribute to the reasons why extracurricular activities benefit students academically. One of these reasons is that students learn character-building lessons that they can apply to their study habits and to their lives. Activities such as athletics, music, theater, and organizations teach students how to discipline themselves through drills, practices, or rehearsals. The students have a responsibility to the activity and must perform the tasks assigned to them. By participating and persevering in any of these activities, the students gain a sense of self-respect, self-esteem, and self-confidence. These activities will also give them pride in their accomplishments, and they learn that if an activity is worth doing, it is worth doing well.
We at St. Augustine’s feel it important to offer these types of activities to our students. We continually grow and evolve in this space of education. Please check on what we currently have to offer noted in the following pages. Activities are not solely about what the score is, how many wins or loses there are, or what place is won at a competition. They provide and instruct students with lessons that will last them a lifetime.
