At Primavera, we provide our students with the tools needed not only to graduate, but to excel while in high school, and that’s why we have special resources that allow you to leave Primavera with even more than just a fully-accredited diploma.

Did you know you can earn high school credit for working a job? If you’re a junior or senior in need of some elective credits, take advantage of our work credit program.

Earning a Work Credit

In order to get an elective credit for work, you need to:

  • Have completed at least one block with Primavera
  • Get permission from your guidance counselor
  • Have your job supervisor sign off on hours spent working

Once you’ve completed the set amount of hours needed, you will earn a high school credit to count toward graduation. While this will not be a core credit, it is a great way to catch up on some electives so you can get closer to that diploma.

Many of our students have full or part-time jobs in a number of industries including working at restaurants or fast food establishments, movie theaters, public pools, babysitting, landscaping, agriculture and even dog walking to name a few. The work credit allows students to get real world experience and earn money, all while working toward their goal of graduating!
