Balancing High School and Part-Time Work
Additional Tips
Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding
experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the
situation and make the most of your time:
Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and
work is easier with their support.
·Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.
·Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedules as far ahead
of time as possible.
· Use your time efficiently. You use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go
over a few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of down time and
your boss has no objection, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.
· If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your
schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.
· Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on
some other thing you might like to do because of your school and work
commitments.
· If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed.
· Schedule relaxation. Everyone needs some down time to stay happy
and healthy
Choose the Right!!!!
