PET OF THE WEEK

Snowflake

Finally! I've been waiting a long time to get to adoption. I came into the shelter in March with an eye injury from another rabbit that wasn't friendly towards me. So then I had to go to a foster home for recovery care and although my left eye is permanently damaged it hasn't slowed me down one bit! My foster family says I'm cheerful, playful, gentle, active, curious and enjoy grooming. Because I'm a large fellow you won't be tempted to pick me up will you? I'd be scared of being dropped and wouldn't feel safe so visit me at my level, on the floor. I was kept in a big ex-pen and given daily exercise in a spare bedroom. Carrotastic! Oh, and I'm litter trained too!

Love, Snowflake

Reference Number: A22332379 Name: Snowflake

Included in the adoption fee: - Spay/Neuter surgery - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: Does working while in school affect grades? My daughter wants to continue working part time at her summer job while she’s completing school. Should I be concerned?

Signed, Worried Mom ©iStockphoto.com/sturti

Dear Worried: Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer that everyone agrees on, but there are a number of studies that try to determine if working affects academic success.

Do you have a work-related question?

Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.

The Consequences of Employment During High School (2005) study found that the more hours students work, the lower their grades, school involvement, college attendance and career aspirations.

The Canada Youth in Transition Survey (2000) found that students who worked 11-20 hours per week had the same drop-out rate as those who did not work at all. Students who worked 1-10 hours per week had the lowest drop-out rate. The drop-out rate increased above 20 hours per week and tripled when students worked more than 30 hours per week.

The Employment During high School: Consequences for Students’ Grades in Reading and Mathematics (1997) made a similar finding: students who worked less than 15 hours per week were less likely to drop out of school than those who did not work at all.

The bulk of the research that I have found indicates that most students can work up to 15 to 20 hours a week and still succeed in school.

Many experts believe that part-time work offers benefits to the student beyond extra pocket money. They learn time-management skills, money-management skills, employability skills, teamwork and interpersonal skills.

Employment also provides valuable work experience and may make the transition from school to full-time work a little smoother.

The key issue seems to be the number of hours a student works. Exceeding 15-20 hours a week may put your daughter’s academic achievement at risk.

Know what your teen is capable of handling when it comes to managing school and work and negotiate what you think is an appropriate number of weekly work hours.

Ensure that your daughter’s employer agrees to the hours limit that your family has set and understands that school comes first.

Your daughter can help her employer by giving lots of notice about times when she might not be able to work as much (e.g., during final exams) and times when she can work more hours (e.g., during Christmas break).

One last thought, this may be a good time for your daughter to look for a job that will provide her with practical experience in a career that she’s interested in.

Working in a field that she is interested in will provide her with valuable related experience and contacts that might help her get her first job out of school. The experience will also give her a chance to “test drive” a career before she invests time and money in a post-secondary education.

Good luck!
