How vital is it to have a job in high school? I’ve been contemplating whether focusing on getting a job should take precedence or if I should prioritize getting my driver’s license first.

It’s great that you’re thinking about these things! Getting a job in high school can have its benefits, like teaching you responsibility, time management, and financial skills. It can also help you save money for things you want, including treats or activities with someone special.
However, it’s also important to consider your priorities.

Ultimately, it depends on your schedule, your responsibilities, and what you feel is most important for you at this stage in life.
Balancing school, friendships, and possibly a job can be tricky, so make sure you’re not spreading yourself too thin. Whatever you choose, communication is key. If you do start dating, sharing your goals and interests with your girlfriend can make for a great foundation in your relationship. Good luck!
