Extracurricular activities are meant to enhance the curriculum, which is a collection of plans and arrangements about the objectives, content, and learning materials, as well as the techniques used to conduct learning activities to accomplish particular education. In reality, extracurricular activities have not performed as planned. Extracurricular activities have not driven student success or enhanced soft skills (relatively low). Extracurricular activities, on the other hand, have been linked to worse student success. This study's goal was to assess extracurricular activities' planning, execution, monitoring and evaluation, community engagement, and results. This study is descriptive and qualitative. Observation, interviews, and documentary studies were used to obtain data. Following the study's findings, extracurricular planning involves defining the sorts of extracurricular programs, student quotas, coordinators, timetables, and finances that align with the school's vision and purpose.
