Balancing High School and Part-Time Work
Part 3
Brad MacGowan 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 Come First
Schoolwork, including homework and studying for test, should
always be your top priority. MacGowan cautions students who do decide to work, “If
you are rushing through your assignments… or not studying enough for test
because of work, it’s time to cut back or quit and find less time-consuming job.”
