Extracurricular activities
By Pamela Stone, the USA
Before I started high school my mom kept bugging me about which extracurricular activities I was going to choose. I really didn’t know what the big deal was. But now that I’m a senior, I totally understand. I’ve spent the last three months filling in college applications, and now I get how important extracurricular activities are. Colleges want to see that you’re busy not just in the classroom, but outside as well.
For the last three years I’ve been very active on the Student Council. This is like student government. Our job is to work with the principal’s office to make life at our school better. I’m also the captain of the girls’ basketball team. We’re not very good, but it keeps me fit and it’s a lot of fun.
Extracurricular activities are very important for colleges.
Pamela began to understand her mother’s concern when she became a senior.

She is the captain of the girls’ basketball team. It keeps her fit and it’s a lot of fun.
Tom plays on a soccer team. He is a star forward.
Students of Pamela’s school can take part in football team, volleyball team, volunteer work, drama club, online newspaper.
She goes in once or twice a week and help in all sorts of ways, like reading out loud to someone or making decorations for a holiday party.
She travelled to the state capital to hear politicians talk about new laws for senior care and because of this experience she got interested in a career in public policy.
