Highschool is known to be the greatest yet most difficult 4 years of your life. It is where individuals begin to discover who they really are and what interests them the most. When entering high schoo
l, you are exposed to this new level of independence, you are free to make choices of your own and be a part of what interests you specifically.
Sometimes the academic life can be overbearing and you just need an outlet, or you can develop this feeling of loneliness being a tiny fish in a big pond. This is why clubs are something great to be a part of.
Clubs improve your high school experience by allowing you to be a part of something bigger than yourself. There are many key benefits that individuals gain, such as critical thinking, problem solving, collaborative skills, building friendships, and making memories.
