Why work?
Students who work are more confident and possess better time-management skills than students who are not employed. In addition to offering a paycheck, some independence, and satisfaction, a part-time job can provide both training and experience. Employment teaches students about responsibility and can also reinforce what they are learning in school. Employers can also write recommendation letters for the students who’ve worked for them.
*Students can apply for working papers as soon as they turn 14 years old.*
