Students,

Many of you have been asking about applying for a work permit while we are in the Distance Learning phase of school this spring. The District has created a system to apply for work permits while buildings are closed. Please take a few minutes to read ALL of the following information. Once you’ve gone to the Work Permit Center and started working on your application, let me know if you have any questions – I’m happy to help!

• This page is your best resource for learning how to obtain a work permit during the Distance Learning phase of school.

Important Work Permit Notes 

• All minors under age 18 (including minors employed by parents) must have a work permit.
• Minors must meet mandatory school attendance laws and meet adequate academic progress in order to obtain work permits. Schools have the legal right to restrict or reduce the type of employment and/or the hours of work if evidence is shown that the schoolwork of the minor is being impaired by the employment. 
• Escondido Union High School District issues work permits for minors residing within the district boundaries and enrolled in district schools. 

• Work Permits must be renewed at the start of the school year or when the student obtains a new job. Current work permits expire August 14, 2020.
