[quote=Anonymous]Cutting middle school afterschool activities is a terrible idea. These activities were a life line for my son who is a shy and quiet kid. It gave him the opportunity to make friends, meet with teachers, and try new clubs. He had a good group of friends going into 7th grade but that group fell apart and he was lost and unhappy for a bit. It was when he started going to some of these clubs and finding common ground outside of class that he flourished. He even participated in the school play this year. I can't tell you how much we've appreciated this outlet. My kid will be in high school next year so the budget cut here won't hurt him but it will hurt other kids like him... kids who need the chance to play and make new friends. Don't take away that joy.
