• Academic goals are very important. However, just as important are activities that support but are not directly a part of your academic program.
• These activities are called co-curricular activities.• Co-curricular activities can help you discover your
talents, explore your interests, reach your goals and even build your resume.
• Examples: o Clubs: Art, drama, debate, mock trial, yearbook, etc.o Sports: volleyball, golf, baseball, football, tennis, track,
etc.o Pre-collegiates: AVID, Colorado Uplift, Gear-up, etc.
Co-Curricular activities can
