Balancing High School and
Part-Time work
Part 3
Brad McGowan, of the career
center at Newton north high school in Massachusetts, thinks that working can be
a valuable part of a student’s life, if taken on responsibly. “You can derive a
great deal from working, considerably more than just money, “he says. “In most
cases, you can acquire a nice dose of discipline and a whole new set of skills
and experiences. “In addition, your supervisor may be willing to write a strong
college recommendation for you.
School comes first
School work, including homework
and studying for tests, should always be your top priority. McGowan cautions
students who do decide to work, “if you are rushing through your assignments …
or not studying enough for a test because of work, it’s time to cut back or
quit and find a less time-consuming job.”
Choose the right!!!!
