Mayor Patrick M. Keefe Jr. announced today that 210 Revere students ages 14-21 had accepted summer job offers with the City of Revere in 2025, an increase of 25 students employed during summer 2024. 150 students are employed by Revere Parks and Recreation, and 60 are employed by YouthWorks.
“By increasing the number of students we hired in summer 2025, we’ve expanded access to quality work opportunities for Revere students, giving them the experience they need for a leg up in the future,” commented Mayor Keefe. He continued, “Employment opportunities like these teach our students accountability and responsibility, while helping them earn some extra money over the summer. Our diverse offerings make for a well-rounded and well-prepared workforce.”
Students have the chance to work in professional settings, such as at City Hall; vocational realms, such as with Action Towing; education, such as ZUMIX or Happy Day Nursery; and public safety, such as the Police Activities League (PAL).
