Clubs should be a fun option for all students. Instead, it has become a thing that many students loathe. When in school, some students decide to join a club or take part in an extracurricular activity, and others do not. Since the principal made the decision to enact the requirement for all students to participate in at least one extracurricular activity, many more families have been complaining to the School Board. Admittedly, many students love school clubs. On the other hand, many students do not. Therefore, forcing students to take part in these activities in unfair. Taking something optional and making mandatory, then requiring families to pay for it, is almost deplorable. The commencing of these mandatory extracurricular activities is resulting in families being forced to do activities that they would not normally do, the creation of scheduling issues for these families, and making school an overall more difficult experience for students.

While this is good for getting students more well rounded, it's also be good at causing issues for students and their families. At Elizabeth Davis, before each and every new school year starts, there are fees that all families must pay. The total price of these fees can total up to over one-hundred dollars. In addition to this, If someone is stating that participating in an extracurricular activity is needed, they must also be assuming that every family has the funds to register for these activities. Consequently, many parents will complain about having to pay for a class that should be optional. Next, By creating the rule that all students must participate in at least one extracurricular activity, the principal would essentially be illegally extending the length of the average school day. Simply put, one can easily observe the damage caused by a simple rule. Second of all, some families already have tasks for their children to do after school. For instance, I personally do not have time to go to a club meeting every week. Once my sister arrives home from school, I'm tasked with taking care of her until my parents come back home. I cannot just abandon my sister, even for amazing grades or social clubs. Another reason, is that after a club meeting is over, can we all expect to be provided transportation by the county? If the answer is no, which it probably is, means that parents would be made to further adjust their schedules. Without a parent or somebody to pick you up from your meeting, you could just end up stuck at school for an amazingly ridiculous additional three hours. Because of this mandatory extracurricular activity, students are required to take more time out of their day, as well as parents, in order to make a slight adjustment. Lastly, forcing extracurricular activities onto students would just make school more difficult overall. Not all students would be interested in the choices of clubs given to them. It is also just a ton of work to go to school for 7 hours, just to go back for another two. The students are not the only ones that would have way more work. Teachers and staff would be made to run these extracurricular activities, and they probably would not receive pay for the extra work hours. Finally, Students
