Adult Education
The Adult Education program provides unique learning opportunities to adults at no cost in a supportive, highly personalized and non-judgmental environment.

Education is provided in the classroom setting as well as through one-on-one tutoring and appointments. All services are free to the community and open to adults over the age of 18. Educational services include tutoring in literacy, math, reading and writing, English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, assistance with job searches, resume building workshops, computer basics classes in English and Spanish and aerobic exercise classes. See schedule below for times and locations.

Students have experienced gaps in their education due to moving, missing school, illness or any number of reasons. Students, especially those with learning disabilities, benefit greatly from one-on-one tutoring instead of the traditional classroom setting, working at a comfortable pace set by the student.

As a community center, a telephone, fax machine, and copier are available to students that need these services.
