Balancing High School and Part – Time Work

Part 2

 

Voicing your goals to someone else can help you make decisions and figure out your priories. It can also help you judge whether you can do both – work and study – successfully. To help answer this question, ask yourself:

·        Am I an organized person?

·        What kind of study habits do I have?

·        Do I make good use of my available time?

·        Will I be able to manage my schedule effectively if I take on a part-time job?

Think about the pros and cons of working. On the plus side, a job can teach you about commitment, time management and responsibility – and of course, handling money. On the minus side, a job can cut into time you have for sleeping, studying and socializing.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT.
