Having a busy schedule outside of school can impact students and their grades. It's important for students to learn time management and organizational skills. If students have additional responsibilities after school, they may have limited time for assignments. They should advocate for their needs and ask for support if necessary. It's important for students to be aware of their limits and not take on too much. Learning to say no is a sign of maturity. Burnout can occur when students take on too much, but there are supports in place at school to help navigate tough times. How does having a busy schedule outside of school impact both the students and their grades? I think you know that's another area as well. I think as adolescents you guys are learning still how to manage your time effectively, and I think that's a skill as you get older that it will get stronger. So I think a lot of it is you know working on strengthening your time management, your organizational skills again, but that's a work in progress, so I feel that you know having additional responsibilities after school gives you limited time. So it's a matter again if things are becoming too much for students to advocate for their needs if they need more time on assignments or any additional supports or going to someone that they trust in the school setting to help them advocate for those deadlines if they need to be older. Yeah, definitely. Students should definitely be made aware if they have certain deadlines and also time management is definitely a big thing knowing that it might be too much to take on something if it's too big and knowing that knowing their limits and knowing that like where to stop. Yeah, and I agree, and I think that knowing our limits sometimes I think as human beings we just want to kind of take things on and say yes, yes, but I think it's a matter of being self-aware of our limitations and learning to say no. So I think that you make a good point, Sydney. Thank you. Yeah, it's definitely an important thing to be able to manage what's going on in your life, and it's also a sign of maturity if you say to yourself like, oh, I can't take this on. This is too much for me right now. That's a sign of maturity because someone else could be like, well, I'm going to do this, and I'm going to do that, and then burn the candle at both ends. Right, exactly, and then you know we see more of that burnout, you know, when kids take too much on, and I think again that's why we have, you know, supports in the building whether it's social workers, psychologists, or a wellness center that staff nine periods a day to help students to navigate those tough times. Yeah, definitely.
