• Before or after school programs, athletics,
  intramurals, clubs, groups, or activities
  (including the arts, music and visual) that do
  not generate graduation credit, can be supervised
  by non-classroom staff, and are not part of a
  traditional instructional day.

47
CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS

• Co-Curricular
• These are not Extra- Curricular
• They are the testing ground for many of our
  classroom experiences

48
CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS

• Co-curricular activities may not be tested or
  graded, but they educate and bene?t students in
  ways that classroom activities cannot.
• - Klesse, E. J., J.A. DOnofrio,
  Principal Leadership,
  2000

49
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.
• - O'Brien, E., Rollefson, M. (1995).

  engagement. U.S. Department of Education,

50
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
  non-participating peers.

51
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.

52
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).

CO-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS

• 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.
