This program allows students to earn high school credits as they gain valuable work experience at Calaway Park during the season. The program is offered at three levels: Work Experience 15, 25 and 35. Students earn 5 credits for every 125 hours they work. These credits are then applied to the student’s high school diploma.

Calaway Park has indeed been a remarkable place with so many supportive staff members and colleagues who are full-on polite, encouraging, and always ready to bring a smile. I can say that I feel safe at Calaway Park because of its environment, and I know that the management and the staff will always look out for me if a crisis arrives because our safety is paramount to them.

I haven’t worked here long but I absolutely love working here! When I first applied I was expecting it to be just a job that I wouldn’t enjoy and would go through the motions to earn some college money. Little did I know what was really to happen: whenever I see what days I’m working I get so excited! I look forward to any day I get to go to work! This has also been the fastest. I’m so happy I can work here this summer and would love to come back!
