Balancing High School and Part-Time work
Part 3
Brad McGowan of the
career center at newton high school in Massachusetts thinks that working can be
valuable part of student’s life if taken responsibly. “You can derive a great
deal from working considerably more than just money,” he says. “In most cases,
you can acquire a nice doe 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
Schoolwork, including
homework and studying for test, should always be your priority. MacGowan
caution students who do decide to work, “if you are rushing through you
assignment… or not studying enough for test because of work, it’s time to cut
back or quit and fine a less time—consuming job.”
