About Learn.Do.Earn.

Learn.Do.Earn.

In partnership with the Rochester Area School District, Workforce 2020 deployed the Learn.Do.Earn. program in local schools in 2008. The program is business-driven and designed to be utilized by teachers, parents and students in an effort to inform, motivate and guide students (grades 6-12) as they navigate their way through high school and beyond.

Learn.Do.Earn.

Learn.Do.Earn. uses eye-popping data to provide students with a statistical rationale and makes a compelling case for working hard now and taking challenging courses in math, science and language arts in order to be prepared for college, work and life. In 2008, the program was piloted in both Willow Creek Middle School and Mayo High School.

As a result of positive feedback from administrators, teachers and students, Learn.Do.Earn. was launched throughout the entire Rochester Public School District in 2009. Further plans include continuing to utilize the program throughout Rochester in 2010, as well as offering it to Rochester private schools and area districts.
