Balancing High School and Part-Time Work (Part 5)

Additional Tips

Although working and going to schools 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.

  Stay shortly; 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 can 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 things you’d 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 time. everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy.
