3 Side Hustles
3 Side Hustles You Can Do at School (Make Money Between Classes!)
Let’s be honest, school keeps you busy, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make money while you’re there. Whether you want cash for lunch, are saving up, or just have extra spending money, there are easy side hustles you can do right at school. I’ve seen how even small income streams at school can build confidence and teach real-life money skills.
Here are 3 simple side hustles for students to earn money, without breaking any rules.
1. Selling Snacks or Drinks
This is one of the most popular school side hustles, and for good reason. People get hungry during class, and vending machines are overpriced or unreliable.
How to Start:
✔ Buy snacks in bulk (candy, gum, chips, drinks) from stores like Costco, Walmart, or Sam’s Club
✔ Sell for a small profit during lunch, breaks, or after school
✔ Keep your prices fair, but still make extra money
Pro Tip: Always check your school rules. Some schools are chill about this, others have restrictions, and know the limits.
2. Tutoring Classmates
If you’re good at a subject like math, science, English, or even test prep, you can make money helping classmates improve their grades.
How to Start:
✔ Offer tutoring during study hall, lunch, or after school
✔ Start with affordable prices to get your first few clients
✔ Word of mouth travels fast, once you help one person, others will ask
Tutoring helps you review what you know AND makes you money, a win-win.
3. Selling Custom Items (Bracelets, Stickers, Keychains, etc.)
Handmade or customized items are always popular at school. You don’t need fancy equipment, just creativity and basic supplies.
Easy Product Ideas:
✔ Friendship bracelets
✔ Personalized keychains
✔ Stickers for water bottles or laptops
✔ Custom art prints or drawings
Why it Works: People love personalized stuff, and small items are easy to sell discreetly between classes.
Final Thoughts
School isn’t just about homework; with the right hustle, it can also be where you start building income and confidence. Whether you sell snacks, tutor, or create custom items, small side hustles can add up fast.
Starting this blog taught me that income streams can come from anywhere, even your school hallway. Pick one hustle, stay consistent, and start stacking your money, one small step at a time.
