Rationale: The “school day” encompasses much more than the hours and classes of instructional time. Extracurricular activities are often an avenue of expression for students, as they allow for peer interaction and student-led initiatives performed outside the typical school day. The teachers’ roles and responsibilities are manifested through extracurricular involvement. This occurs through the coaching or sponsorship of clubs and activities, but also in planning, organizing and actively participating with their students in activities such as the school newspaper and interschool sports program. Teachers should know the various opportunities for extracurricular involvement and the expectations of their school and community. They should value the educational and social importance of extracurricular activities and how they continue to academics. They should be able to foster and demonstrate personal commitment, team building and community building skills that extracurricular activities and involvement can produce both inside and outside of the academic classroom.
