WORK PERMITS are issued in person. In order to be issued a work permit, students will need to come into the Family Resource Center and submit their completed two-page permit application and proof of age (one of the following: birth certificate, driver's license, driver's permit, or passport.)  

Important:

• The student must be present for the permit to be issued
• The employer must sign the permit PRIOR to Lowell Public Schools issuing the permit.
• If you need the paperwork for your employer to complete, please download from our website.

We do not issue work permits for New Hampshire. 

Hello Families,

As the Coordinator of the Family Resource Center, I would like to welcome you and your family to the Lowell Public Schools!  The City of Lowell is a dynamic and diverse city with much to offer--including a vibrant and engaging school system.  

The Family Resource Center is here to welcome your family to the Lowell Public Schools.  Beginning a new school whether it is for kindergarten or grade 12, is an exciting, and sometimes nerve wracking, experience for both parents and children.  There are many things to consider as a parent--how to register your child, which school you would like your child to attend, transportation, after school programs, and so much more.  For the children, they will be encountering all new things--new classmates, new teachers, after school activities, and athletics to name just a few. Our goal at the Family Resource Center is  to help you and your child make a seamless transition to our school system.  

In addition, the Family Resource Center is here to help families access other community resources or agencies which they may need.  Myself and my staff are here to assist you in any way we can.  Please do not hesitate to contact us.

We update this web site with information weekly.  Check back often.

Again, welcome to Lowell!

Dr.  Rebecca A.  Duda
