Services
The English as a Second Language (ESL) program supports parents and family members with learning English so they can be strong advocates for their children’s education. All levels of learners are welcomed, and classroom/tutoring participation includes practice with conversational, reading and writing skills. Some topics also help to enhance parent-child interactions and learning outside the classroom.
The High School Equivalency program offers classes and tutoring in English and Spanish, covering math, reading, writing and technology skills. Learners progress at their own level while gaining confidence and skills to pass the GED test and pursue employment and higher learning opportunities.
In addition to ESL classes and GED classes in English and Spanish, the Adult Education and Career Transition program offers special workshops on topics including:
- employment readiness
- family literacy
- financial literacy
- leadership training
- peer-to-peer transitional support
Enrolled learners have access to an onsite social worker who acts as a community liaison to provide links to needed resources.
