Maybe give some free advice about: School?
It's unfoRtunate, but peRhaps you should consideR dRopping an activity oR two? That seems to be all that can be done. You claim you stay up late at night woRking on youR homewoRk? And do you completely dedicate youR time to it when you get home? I'd suggest making a schedule, and sticking to it. Go home immediately afteR youR activities, and staRt youR homewoRk Right away. Find a quiet space wheRe you will not be inteRRupted, and make ABSOLUTELY shoRe to tuRn off youR cellulaR, computeR and television! Do not allow youRself to go anywheRe oR do anything OTHER than schoolwoRk til all of it is completely done. It may seem like a silly, oveRly stRict solution, but hey... school takes dedication, haRdwoRk and effoRt -- that's the only way. It may seem like a pain in the ass now, but it will all pay off in the end. Goodluck to you. Hopefully I've helped out some! =D

I think maybe if these extra curiculars are making your grades slip than just quit a few. Your grades are more important to a college than your extra curiculars. If all this stuff is stressing you out then take a few deep breaths calm down and maybe get a planner. Write down all the things you have to do and if it is too much like i said drop an extra curicular activity. Make sure you fit in homework, school, friends, alone time and of course SLEEP!! Those are all very important!

Pick your most favorite activity to do and pick that thing to do on your less work day,so you'll be able to get work done and have fun.

Well, maybe you should try to cut down on the extra-curricular activites and wait for highschool, or the summer after 8th grade to do that because in my school the hours that you do for community service don't count till you in highschool. I think its great that your doing all this stuff and your really thinking about the future. Hell, I didn't think about it since just now at the end of 8th grade.
ok well I hope your grades cum back up!

okay..well dallas texas rocks!:)how many extacurricular activities are you doing?.. i think that school should always come first..but if you want to get into that good high school or college just continue to try your hardest in school..but just keep trying your hardest in school and you should do fine!

try dropping an extra curicular activity or 2. it'll take off stress, and give you time to do your hw. you'll still have extra curicular activities on your application, and your grades will go up! trust me, schools would prefer good grades opposed to alot of extras. hope this helps!
