To All Students Seeking Employment in the Santa Barbara School District:

**Change in the Work Permit Application Process**

It is required by law that all students under the age of 18

obtain a Work Permit to hold a job.

In the Fall 2008, there will be a change

in the current Work Permit Application Process.

In order to receive a Work Permit, all students must:

· Maintain a GPA of 2.0 fro the previous quarter/term

· Have acceptable attendance to receive a regular work permit

This policy will go into effect on Monday, October 27,2008. The start of the 2^nd quarter of the 2008-2009 school year.

GPA and attendance requirements will be confirmed prior to the issuance of the Work Permit.

If students do not meet the minimum criteria,

they will not be allowed to work.

Students may resubmit a work permit application the following quarter if they have met the minimum requirements. Work Permits will be revoked and the student barred from working if they do not continue to meet the requirements throughout the school year.

If you have any questions regarding this new Santa Barbara School District Board Policy change, please contact the Career Center at your school.
