Balancing High School and Part-Time



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. McGowan 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.”
