Check your state and local laws. Here in Michigan you have to be like 14 or 15 to start working. However there are restrictions. We have to get a work permit from school and are restricted to 18 hours a week. Another option is go in to business yourself. Moving laws, shoveling snow, etc. 

 

Big issue is a lot of employers wont hire you. You can check with Fast Food, but there are restrictions to what your allowed to do. For example when I worked at Sam's Club you had to be 18 to operate the bailer and trash compactor. Also you have the transportation issue, I cant even count how many people lost jobs at Burger King for not having transportation. So its easier if you have a license to drive or your job is in walking or biking distance.

Ask your school if they have any summer job programs.

I did my share of tech support/repairman for neighbors, friends and family when I was young. This is a good way to get like 100$ a week if you find enough people with tech trouble (sometimes it's just installing the internet or explaining to an 80 year old how to send emails). The money they'll give you is far lower than what they would pay at an IT store but will add up quickly if you're good. I built my first gaming rig doing that, at 14 maybe.

 

Another way to go is the local movie theater : see if they want some ticket or popcorn sellers, that's an easy, evening time job.
