Teen Jobs For The Summer

Renee Darling, Staff Writer

Many teenagers wish to begin making money to save for a car, pay for school, family trips or functions, or would simply like to begin saving for college. However, many students are constantly busy with extracurriculars year-round and need a job with a flexible schedule or are willing to hire them temporarily, such as over the summer.

Below are job opportunities nearby that check these boxes with reasonable pays. Some require additional skills, physical requirements, education/experience requirements, etc.
