Jennifer Mahyle High school is a critical time to learn values such as diligence, multi-tasking, as well as the importance of hard work. These essential values are both used throughout life and are key to successful careers. In addition to an academic setting, many students further their learning of these values by obtaining a job in their free time. Maintaining a job while attending school can be exhausting. Students wake up early in the morning and work hard during school only to leave from school and work jobs. One student, Hannah Stoughton, describes her experience working during high school as, “a lot of hard work and very tiring, but it is also an extremely rewarding experience.” She went on further to explain that it has taught her more than she could have expected it to do. Working as a teenager teaches responsibility to not only show up to one’s job on time but also maintain good grades and turn assignments in on time. Annabelle Casella said working and going to school has taught her both time management and how to multitask. Juggling schoolwork between working a night job teaches hard work and diligence. Working in high school is no easy task and while it can be tiring, the values one can learn from it are invaluable. It creates responsibility and a desire to work hard and achieve goals.
