Finding a Job / Work Permit Process
- Before you can be issued a work permit application, you first need to be at least 14 and have been offered a job. If you are 18, you do not need a work permit.
- To help in finding a job, click here for a list of businesses that have hired our students in the past. You will need to call these businesses to see if they are hiring.
- Another way to find a job is to ask the businesses around you to see if they are hiring.
- Come to the SLVHS Counseling Office to pick up a Work Permit Application and have both a parent and employer sign it. You can also download and print this application form here.
- Once you have filled out the form and gotten both the parent and employer signature, you bring the work permit back to the SLVHS Counseling Office. After your counselor signs it, we will then complete the work permit and then it will be ready to be picked up at the end of the school day.
- Note: During the Summer, you may need to go to the district office to complete this process, contact the SLVHS Counseling Office to find out when this period is.
- When you come back to pick up your work permit, you will sign it and then bring the permit to your employer.
