Credits for working in high school

We have a business that my 10th & 12th grade daughters are working in a couple days per week. Can this qualify as credit for high school as an elective?

 

I don't know why not. Apprenticeship, Internship, something like that.

 

Yes, i think in our area 68 hours equals 1/2 credit for a semester.

 

The rules will likely be different in each state.

Pay close attention to labor laws for kids under 18. A few states limit number of hours allowed to work per school day...particularly for kids 16 and under. For example...for 16 and 17 year olds in Michigan, work plus school cannot exceed 48 hours per week. Minors are also prohibited from working past 10:30 PM here on school nights.

Graduation credit rules are different in each state, too.
