When I was in high school, I was in band, but it wasn't really an after school activity. I was in jazz band, which was after school but counted as a class. I tried a few things like debate club and chess club, but I decided to focus mostly on music and schoolwork.

I did do a few other things though. One that wasn't affiliated with the school was this youth wind ensemble at UMass Lowell which was after school. I also participated in and helped to pioneer (I love saying that part) an internship program that operated through the school. People have done internships before, but no one had ever done one at an actual hospital, never mind Mass General. It was also a class, but it operated during and after school and wasn't really graded much.

Robotics Club/ Team. We build robots and eat chips.

Sometimes we get pizza.

It's pretty fun, but there's always some dick who ruins it for everyone.

I used to be in the school band and I did photography as an after school activity. They are both things that I still have as hobbies even though my work schedule is a lot fuller now. Yeah I really enjoyed my extracurricular activities.

I used to be in a few orchestras/bands, but I've quit now because the bass teacher freaks me out and the music program at this school sucks. Most of the extracurriculars at this school aren't that great, to be honest. Our brother school? Yeah, they have a computer games club. They use their budget to buy laptops. They have a strategy club too. They get together on school days and get the entire day off to play card games or whatever. Makes it so tempting to go there and cross-dress as a guy just to join their relatively more awesome clubs.

I sing and I go to the gym.

Unfortunately this takes up more of my time than it should.

I joined up to the Senior Hockey Team this year...felt like I needed something extra curricular to put on my personal statement haha.

We lost 5-0 in our first game, and I got a ball in the knee and had to miss the most part of it.

I've left school but when I was there I didn't really do any after school activities.

I just wanted to go home.

I like that a lot.

On topic though,
I usually visit the local library and read the Encyclopedia Britannica.
It sounds silly, but is quite interesting and really brought about a massive overhaul in my worldly knowledge.

School related activities though... Hmmm... I used to be a part of the 'Strange Philosophy Club'.
Think along the lines of stoner questions being asked, and subsequently answered by members to the best of their abilities.

My school didn't have any extra-curricular activities. We were to small a school for that, and probably too poor.

But i did play AFL and Basketball out of school.

The only club I was ever in while in high school that I actually cared about was our school's version of Big Brothers, Big Sisters. You'd basically just go hang out with your kid at the elementary school during school hours, and I always went while they had recess.

That's right.
I got excused from class to go play on a playground. In high school. FTW.

I was in the Marching band and Academic Team(A-team for short)high school,both were a ton of fun. Now I really don't have anything as my school is small and has no real extra curricular activities.Unless you count working on dead on the weekend an extra curricular activity.
