Even though Lexington High offers demanding courses of study and many extracurricular activities, a growing number of students are finding time to hold part-time jobs. What are the rea- sons for this phenomenon? The most common motivation for stu- dent employment is the desire to earn extra money. Because inflation has made it more difficult to buy things such as clothes, records, concert tickets, and cars; students have decided to work. Often it is necessary for students to save money for fur- ther education. Many students also have a sense of responsibility and feel the need to contribute financially to their families. At Lexington High work means “different things to different people”. While some students work on a volunteer basis to learn more about a particular field, and some out of necessity, the great- est number of working students are those who want to increase their spending power.
