Entering a 4-year institution with an Associates Degree allows for extensive cost savings on tuition, room & board, and allows for reduced loans making a Bachelors Degree much more attainable and accessible to all students.
Students take courses on an alternate day format, with the same instructional minutes as a traditional schedule, and utilize the off days to take daytime college courses offered on campus through the LCC partnership.
No extra travel is required; no extra days are required; no HS opportunities are reduced as a result of full time college status while still in HS.

Core Classes (math, science, social studies, and language arts) will be taught within the career interest that you are involved in so that you can learn more effectively through course content relevance.
