• For forms, see below. Any student under the age of 18 needs to have a valid Work Permit in order to work at any time, during the school year and/or vacations & holidays. CORE, in addition, upholds the policy that students must have a minimum grade point average of 2.0 in order to be issued a work permit. At any time a school and/or school district retains the right to refuse or take away a permit to work if it deems it necessary for the well being of the student.
