The program brings rewards far beyond the benefit to individual students. Through Washington's performance-based funding system known as the Student Achievement Initiative, LCC receives extra points for adult learners who achieve educational milestones, including earning a high school diploma and transitioning to college level studies. Points translate to dollars, which is good for the college and the community.
