Rolling Hills Middle School after-school clubs provide students with organized programs that emphasize children gaining leadership experience and social skills through participating in organized activities. Research has shown that structured after-school programs can lead to better test scores, improved homework completion, higher grades, and even improved psychosocial development among students. There are two clubs that I currently run at Rolling Hills, Strength and Conditioning as well as Ping pong. My goal in these programs is to give students a supervised area to develop skills and have fun with peers that they may not get to socialize with during the normal school day.
