How long can I work in Florida in the "school year" IF...?

I am being homeschooled. I would like to work more than what I can work in the official school year. I know the hours are low. I would like to work 6 hours a day for at least 3 days a week. Is it legal for me to do this. BTW my dad is my employer and he works at a pizza shop. I am legal to work there, and I am going to get paid as an official employee, not an "under the table" paycheck. I AM 14-15 YEARS OLD :)

    The same as real world students who aren't being used as cheap labor for their dad.

    You might also want to acquaint yourself with the actual labor laws about 14 year olds, as in all likelihood you working in the kitchen is illegal.
