Adult Education

Adult Classes

Students can improve their math, reading, writing, spelling and workplace skills. Students may also prepare for their GED tests and citizenship test. Adult students use interactive software programs with supplemental one-on-one tutoring to improve their basic skills or English language usage tailored to each individual’s needs and abilities. Students MUST BE at least 18 years old to enroll.

English Language Learning

Students learn English conversation, vocabulary, and pronunciation in addition to the basic skills instruction as offered in Adult Basic Skills.

GED Prep Classes

Our classes provide a supportive and positive environment from start to finish including:

  • An individualized assessment of current skills including practice tests to determine if the student is ready to take one or more of the tests right away.
  • Individualized instruction to help study for tests. Instruction includes educational software and one-on-one help from trained volunteer tutors.

Family Literacy

Family Literacy

Learning Lab helps families break the intergenerational cycle of illiteracy.

Our program incorporates the four components of family literacy recognized by the National Center for Families Learning:

  • Adult basic skills
  • Early childhood education
  • Parent and Child Together (PACT) time and parenting skills

Parents and their children attend classes at the Lab twice a week. While parents are working on their basic skills, their children attend early childhood programs in a preschool or infant-toddler classroom.

A preschool program for three to five-year-olds emphasizing emergent literacy and school readiness, and a curriculum for birth to three-year-olds designed to enhance early brain development.

Parenting skills instruction emphasizes topics such as child development, appropriate discipline, parenting stresses and how to provide a developmentally appropriate home environment while fostering reading, writing and math readiness skills.
