Our son graduated from Moultonborough Academy in 2006. He worked locally during the summer while he was in college. After college he has worked out of state. Many of his classmates after graduating college have also left the state or they are working in Southern NH. After growing up in a rural area they seem to want to live in a more urban area. After they retire maybe they will return to the Lakes Region.

I see some confusion here. Summer jobs for students are different in my mind from career jobs that are year seasonal or round and when these folks are laid off some benefits might apply. But a student going back to school in the fall should be a different category. Our current system encourages foreign students to come to work in the summer because they can work until mid September. U.S. students quit in mid-August so they can go play sports. OK, I get it, but most of them will not get big scholarships and will not play professionally. They could get a great recommendation from a summer employer for a later job. Or they can get a letter that says "left unexpectedly".
I'd be happy for mid-August sports if other classes also had "extra time" in August for Physics, History, etc.
