Guidance Services:

The Department of Student Personnel Services shares in the responsibility of insuring that students attain their greatest potential educationally, socially, and vocationally. Working as part of a team with teachers, administrators, child study team members, student assistance counselor, nurse and parents, the counselors help students achieve their goals. Counselors meet with students to discuss school adjustment, college and post secondary educational and career planning, and personal concerns.

WORKING PAPERS:

As of June 1, 2023, all working papers are completed online at myworkingpapers.nj.gov.  

 

 Here’s how it works:

1. Minors and their employer each go to Myworkingpapers.nj.gov to start. 

2. The employer is emailed a unique 8-digit code they share with every minor they hire.

3. The minor fills out their working papers application online, entering the employer’s unique 8-digit code. The minor adds their caregiver’s name and email address.

4. The employer is emailed when a minor applies for working papers using unique 8-digit code assigned to their business. The employer clicks the link in the email to add job duties and hours and give their OK.

5. The caregiver is emailed that a working papers application has been started by a minor in their care. The caregiver clicks the link in the email to give their OK and provide the minor’s proof of age.

6. The minor and their employer each receive an email when the caregiver takes action on the working papers application.

7. The minor can begin working — unless they receive an email rejecting their application. (Notification of approval/rejection can be expected within 24 hours of the caregiver taking action.)

College Courses for High School Students

Opportunities to enroll in college courses are also offered by the community colleges, but are not affiliated specifically with Lenape Valley.  This means that students will earn  credits on a community college transcript, but the credits will not transfer to Lenape Valley.  The college course may be considered as satisfying pre-requisites so as to allow Lenape Valley student to accelerate their studies in high school.  For example, a student who has enrolled in Spanish 1 as a Freshman at Lenape Valley may enroll in Spanish 2 at the community college and then enroll in Spanish 3 during their sophomore year.  While the student will not receive credit at Lenape Valley, this option will enable the student to accelerate their course sequence so that they may enroll in Advanced Placement Spanish as a senior.  Interested students should apply directly to the community college and submit a college transcript to Lenape Valley upon completion of the course.  These courses may additionally transfer to future colleges.
