why early college? » community
   
Every community wants to set itself apart from the rest. Get ahead of the competition. Provide real opportunity for friends and neighbors to thrive and enjoy a good life.

opportunity's knocking.
    With nine out of every 10 new jobs in our Research Triangle region requiring education beyond high school, college is no longer an option. It's a necessity.
    And to succeed in a technically-sophisticated and fast-paced economy, you need good skills. Broad knowledge. An ability to learn and adapt. That means a college degree.
    If the old adage is true — opportunity knocks but once — this could be that moment for students and all residents of Lee County.

early college has arrived.
    It's obvious how Early College helps students. Now, they can get the education they need to succeed — quickly and for free. But it's not only students who benefit from a fast-paced high school.
   Lee County has placed itself "on the map" as a community that's serious about education, innovation and helping residents secure a better life. That makes this a place where people want to live and do business.

a worthy investment.
    Developing a highly-skilled and educated community makes Early College a worthy investment. Not only for the future of its students, but for everyone else as well.
