Research supports the positive effects of co- and
extra-curricular activities on students’ achievements. Social clubs, music and the arts, sports, and co-curricular activities provide opportunities for students to develop their cognitive, social and physical skills.
At James F. Doughty, nearly 98% of students participate in two or more school activities, contributing to their development and adding to the vibrancy of the school environment.
