Student Life Experience beyond academics Becky Penn Co-editor-in-chief For each of us, our experience at JCHS meant something different. Not only did we receive a formal education, but we learned how to relate with others and how to be individuals. We learned how to be responsible and how to relax. We learned the joy of reaching a long awaited goal—graduation. tfi Our student lives included much more than school activities. Jobs, relationships, families, and other factors all affected the we spent the best times of our student lives.

Why work now? JCHSers express ideas about student jobs Resia Moreland DPS editor Fall is always filled with fun and special times that can be remembered throughout the school year. Students are always involved in many activities. Among these activities, students may choose to keep a job. Keeping a job requires dedication, both to the job and to grades. Many of the nation’s teenagers hold jobs. Fifty-seven percent of the nations black teen-agers and 20 percent of white teen-agers work, but don’t need to. They do this for money, to buy clothes and cars. There are always good and bad points over every issue. With students working, there are many people involved, parents, school officials, teachers, and employers. Some teachers feel high school is not a time when students should work. “When you get out of high school and college you’ll be working for the rest of your life, and you’ll probably dislike your job. So why work now when you can play?” said government teacher Doug Conwell. Students are concerned about their grades. They are pressured by parents and school officials to keep up their grades. Sometimes it takes all of a student’s time to be devoted to school work. ‘ When you keep a job during school, you miss out on all the activities. You need your free time. On the weekdays, you already know you’ll be tied down with homework, and who needs the added pressure of a job? On the weekends you should relax. You should take time to enjoy not working, because you’ll be working for the rest of your life,” said Julie Vogelsang. Some students have to much time to spare. A job gives them responsibilities. It gives them goals to work for. doing good in school and in their job “I feel a job adds responsibilities to the students. It shows them how the real world is. Students have to learn how to divide their time and decide what is more important for them,” said Regina Nunnery typing teacher. There is always the students point of view. Many students do feel the same as Nunnery. Ricci Volpe. who works at Merle Normans and the Klothes Kloset. said, “I never feel I have enough time for myself, or school activities. Sometimes teachers expect too much. They go too fast. Parents want kids to work, so they can gain a sense of responsibility, and pay for other things such as cars, clothes, and other activities. Whatever a student’s choice might be, and whatever he she might be doing, whether it is working or not. it must agree with them and the goals they have set for themselves. At Food 4 Less.
