A large percent of the students here at PHS have some type of job. Whether their job is to pay for a car, clothes, college, or just extra spen- ding money, students spend many afternoons, even- ings and weekends at their job. For students jobs can often be a challenge when also carried along with the regular school work load. But many times they may have no choice but to keep their jobs and do the best they can. If a student is in- volved in many activities at school it can be difficult to carry a job at the same time. If you’re lucky with a good and understanding manager or bosses they may be willing to try to work out a convenient schedule for you. On the other hand, some aren’t so lucky. Some students such as seniors Jesse Gutierrez and Janna Tuggle have a different type of job. After school these students take classes at ACC to help prepare them for college and their future after school. Karen Brown, editor of The Panther Prowler, the school newspaper, also has a job that may help her with her future career. She does type setting, and does some stories for the Pflugerville newspaper.
