Work Permits:
  • Students may work during school hours, but they will need a Work Permit.
  • Work Permits can be requested using the Request Manager.
  • The original will go to the employer and a copy needs to be kept by the student.
  • A student I.D. is also recommended as the student will be out during school hours.

Recording Work Experience:

  • Students can receive credit for Work Experience (300 hrs./1 credit). Maximum 2 credits in high school. The course would be an elective.
  • However, we recommend college bound students record this type of information in the Portfolio instead of on the transcript.
  • For additional information please refer to the Transcripts & Portfolio section of our high school pages.
