He’s late for this. But if he has his certification, he may be able to get part time work subbing for others.[/quote]

maybe not - I saw Martin Luther King Pool in Silver Spring is hiring lifeguards.[/quote]

He's definitely not late.  I'm a teacher who has managed pools for 20 years and I can tell you most pool companies would hire him today if he's certified.  Most companies run lifeguard training courses all summer because college kids tend to leave by mid August and we need high school aged guards to keep us going through Labor Day weekend.  Visit the Red Cross website and use the "Find a Course" search function to locate a training course and get him certified.  It's good for two years so even if he doesn't work this summer he will be ready for next spring and won't have to juggle school and long weekends of training for a month. [/quote]

Ditto that!  I loved lifeguarding in my teens:  sunshine, hanging out in your bathing suit, some authority (no running!  Off the ropes!), getting a tan and good hours that don’t conflict with your social calendar. [/quote]
