from the desk of valentine torres

What a great school year 21-22 has been for our Brickies! The career newsletter opened up so many employment opportunities. It is great when local businesses call us to request that we post jobs for our students. They believe in the work ethic of our students and are eager to hire them! Thank you to those of you who send job leads for our students, it is very appreciated!



"Teen summer jobs are far less common than they used to be. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, about half of all teens worked during the summer in the early 1990s, and that number has declined—plummeting with the recent recession—to less than 30% today. But for some kids, it’s still a great opportunity worth checking out. Consider the following as you advise your teen about how to spend the summer break this year;"


  • Jobs outside the home teach responsibility.
  • Summer jobs offer extra income and financial skills.
  • A summer job keeps a bored teen out of trouble.
  • Summer jobs can clarify career direction.

The Pros and Cons of Teens Summer Jobs



***Should you happen to know of any employers who are looking to hire students please send that information to vtorres@hobart.k12.in.us


At Hobart High School we strive to have our Brickies college and career-ready too. This newsletter will be released monthly highlighting career opportunities available to our students.
