Work Permits
A work permit is required for any person under the age of 18 to work in Pennsylvania. A work permit can be issued to minors who reside in the Exeter Township School District by the high school. To obtain a permit, please follow these steps:
- Download and complete the Work Permit Application. Fill it out completely, including parent/guardian signature.
- For "Place of Birth," please list the city, state and name of the hospital where the student was born.
- Email the completed application along with a copy of the student's birth certificate, passport or driver's license to workpermits@exetersd.org or bring the completed documents to the high school to complete the application in person. The office is available for work permits from 7:30AM - 2:30PM. Please check the calendar for holiday/school closures. During the summer, please call ahead as office hours may vary and allow extra time as our staff may be on vacation.
The parent and student will be notified when the permit is ready for pick up.
