High school can be stressful. Youll need tocomplete challenging courses and examinations.Joining a club while youre still in high schoolplays an important role in making your life morecolorful. Here are some tips for choosing the rightschool club for you.

Always choose quality. Dont join everyclub in school. Choose one or two that you find enjoyable and something that will improveyour focus. If you join many clubs， you wont get to enjoy what you love， and you will in⁃stead feel tired and finally lose interest in continuing. Just focus on something that mostlydraws your attention and at the same time， give yourself space to do other things as well.

Know your choices. There is a wide variety of extracurricular activities （课外活动）and organizations available in high school. There are political organizations， math or sci⁃ence clubs， sports teams， or arts and theater clubs. You will be introduced to these organiza⁃tions at the start of the school year. You can attend the meetings to see which one you like.Then you can narrow down your list to your top choice.

Seek professional experience. Getting a part⁃time job while youre in high school canbe hard sometimes， although there are some choices. But if you love experimenting， you canjoin the science club and hone（磨炼）your skills by being an intern （实习生） in a roboticscourse. If you love dancing， on the other hand， try the dance club and see the dance showssponsored in your school or community. Spend time developing your interests and learningto improve them for your future.

Learn to give back. Some clubs are known for allowing their members to give back.They would often provide choices to do community service or perhaps offer to help you con⁃nect with families who are in need so you can provide them with whatever you can share. Inthis way， you are encouraged to give your time， or you can send some of your blessings tothose who need them.
