After school, many of these seniors participate in extra-curricular activities, such as sports, clubs, or volunteering. Although academic work is vital, these extra-curricular activities are also significant for students because they teach responsibility and teamwork.

If I had to pick one extracurricular activity to pursue in college, I would definitely choose club volleyball. Ever since I started playing volleyball in the 7th grade, I have been hooked.

In this way, volleyball taught me that teamwork, dedication, and perseverance…

On the other hand one important pieace of coummincation is also listening. The junior class sometimes does struggle with this. All in all it is up to the indidual to listen and keep up strong…
With students working together in cooperative groups they learn to understand and appreciate different perspectives through a dialogue with their peers as well as learning critical thinking skills and problem solving skills.
