 Work Permit Application

Work Experience Education (WEE) is a statewide program that allows high school level students to gain high school credit while being employed. WEE supports and equips students in their current employment while preparing them for future careers. Course topics include job applications, creating resumes, interviewing skills, labor laws, career inventories and exploration, and income tax returns. Various speakers from the community enrich the class by conducting presentations on the topics listed above.
