CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
Before or after school programs, athletics, intramurals, clubs, groups, or activities

CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
Co-curricular activities may not be tested or graded, but they educate and benefit students in ways that classroom activities cannot.

CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
Extracurricular activities provide a channel for reinforcing the lessons learned in the classroom, offering students the opportunity to apply academic skills in a real-world context , and are thus considered part of a well-rounded education.

CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
 The NCES (National Center for Educational
Statistics) measures high school success in five categories : number of unexcused absences, number of skipped classes, grade point average, standardized test scores and likelihood of attaining a four-year college degree.
In all five categories, students who participate in co-curricular activities outperform their nonparticipating peers .
www.cusd200.org
.org

Community Engagement
CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
A Harvard Educational Review article in 2002 found that participation in extracurricular activities in high school appears to be one of the few interventions that benefit low-status , disadvantaged students – those less well served by traditional educational programs – as much or more than their more advantaged peers.
www.cusd200.org
.org

Community Engagement
CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS
Recent research suggests that participation in extracurricular activities may increase students' sense of engagement or attachment to their school, and thereby decrease the likelihood of school failure and dropping out (Lamborn et al,
1992; Finn, 1993).

Finally, music [the arts] teaches things that traditional classrooms do not and can not teach; poise, self confidence, cooperation, dedication, beauty, appreciation of cultures, patience, the subtleties and majesty of life.
