Strategies and Initiatives

Learn.Do.Earn

In partnership with the Rochester Area School District, WF 2020 will implement the Learn.Do.Earn program in the fall 2008. The web-based 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 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. This will be launched in both Willow Creek Middle School and Mayo High School.  Over the next three years, the program will be implemented throughout Rochester Public Schools, Catholic Schools and area districts.
