Busy Beyond Belief
The majority of students at Eastern
are involved in a variety of
extracurricular activities, which can
keep them very busy. There are so
many to choose from, allowing
everyone the chance to use their
God- given talents.
Sean Horoho thinks extracurricular
activities are " fun," which is a word
that most teenagers would not use to
describe school. Sean says, " Whether
it's sports, church, or academic
activities, each one provides a unique
opportunity to grow as a person."
There are academic teams, drama club,
Spanish club, chess club, and National
Honor Society, just to name a few.
Eastern also has an orchestra
program and many varieties of choir
and band if music is your thing. There
is an array of sports to choose from at
Eastern, top. Not to mention, a
significant number of teenagers have
jobs on top of all the other things they
can do.
School takes up almost eight hours a
day, five days a week, not counting
homework time. So, how do students
at Eastern find time to do so many
Sometimes teenagers need to focus
their attention on something other than
school. It is important to take a break
once and awhile and do something you
enjoy. Joelle Youmans comments,
" When you are in clubs and other
after- school activities, you can have
fun learning about what the group does
while being yourself. You also don't
have to worry about grades, which is
good."
Being busy can also help keep teens
out of trouble, which parents certainly
do not mind. That is if teenagers are
busy doing good things that their
parents approve. There is a balance
that must be kept, though. If students
get too busy, problems can arise. For
one thing, parents may not enjoy
hauling their children all over the
place, unless their kids can drive
themselves. Then, it is not such a
on Highway
