2 kayla is one of the many american high school students who work. in fact, around eighty percent of all high school students will have had some kind of job by the time they graduate. but is working during the school year a good thing? lets find out.
benefits
3 kaylas friend sergio morales is a senior who works fifteen to twenty hours a week bagging groceries. he says, \per hour, the money doesnt sound like much, but it adds up. i like being able to spend it on things i want to buy. and i am also saving a little to go to a community college next year.\
4 sergio has named an obvious benefit of working—getting money in return for your labor—yet there are other benefits too

Explanation:

The sentence is about balancing a new job and school. Since school is related to education, "academic" which is paired with "school" in the context of priorities should relate to education. "Workplace" is about the job - not the school part. "Important" and "successful" are too general and don't specifically tie to the school/education aspect as well as "educational" does.

Answer:

educational
