Records, Transcripts & Permits

Ohio law states that all employed minors between the ages of 14 and 18 must have a work permit on file with the school district they attend. Our district is required to process work permits through the Ohio Department of Commerce. A new work permit is required each time students change their place of employment. Once students turn 18, they no longer need a work permit even though they are still a student. The system will not allow us to enter information for 18 year olds.

PLEASE FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. COMPLETE APPLICATION (BOTH SIDES) BEFORE TURNING IN TO:

Reynoldsburg City Schools’ Board Office

7244 East Main Street
Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068
(614) 501-1020
Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.

2. ALL 3 SECTIONS OF THE APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE PERMIT CAN BE ISSUED

a. Pages 1 & 2 - Student information (including parent signatures)

b. Page 1 - Employer information (including employer’s Tax ID number and approximate days and hours of work schedule)

c. Page 2 - Current physical is required. Students must have their doctor’s office sign the “physician’s approval” section of the form. If students change jobs, they will need to complete another application (1 st page only if their physical is current). If the physical we have on file is current, we will make a copy of their doctor information as well as their birth certificate from their previous application. Physicals expire one (1) year after the date of student’s doctor visit. If physicals have expired when applying for a new place of employment, students will need to schedule another appointment with their doctor or get a physical from any of the mini clinics. The form will need to be signed and/or stamped by the doctor’s office.

3. STUDENTS: must bring in their application THEMSELVES so they can sign the permit that is issued by our school board office. Parents do not need to accompany their student, but parent signatures are required on both pages of the form.

4. PROOF OF AGE: must provide birth certificate, hospital certificate, baptismal record, passport or driver’s license. One proof is required. The Ohio Department of Commerce DOES NOT accept social security card or state I.D. as proof of age.

Please open the document, read the instructions and complete all the information before returning it to the Reynoldsburg City Schools' central office.

Other Notes:

The Superintendent or designee will sign this application AFTER it is completed by the parent, employer, and physician’s office. The application may then be turned into the School Board Office on Main Street. Student needs to bring their birth certificate or passport. The work permit will then be issued to the student.

Students must attend Reynoldsburg City Schools (either as residents or open enrollment students) to obtain a work permit from our school board office.
