     1    Section  1.  Paragraph  a of subdivision 1 of section 143 of the labor

     6  cooperative work experience program approved by the department of educa-
     7  tion  may  be employed for no more than six hours on any day preceding a
     8  school day, other than on a Sunday or holiday, if such hours of  employ-
     9  ment occur solely pursuant to such program. Any hours worked by students
    10  in  such programs shall be included when calculating the number of hours
    11  worked for purposes of subparagraph (i) of  this  paragraph;  and  (iii)

    15  receives and maintains both the written consent of the minor's parent or
    16  guardian and a certificate which shall be provided to  the  employer  at
    17  the  end of each marking period by the minor's school which shall assert
    18  that such minor is in satisfactory academic standing  according  to  the
    19  standards  in such school district; where such student maintains a pass-
    20  ing grade as determined by the educational institution where the student
    21  is enrolled, has written permission from a parent or legal guardian  and
    22  where  such student meets any other educational standards or requirement
