ADULT EDUCATION

Join the Adult Ed Community

Funded by a grant from the Florida Department of Education, our program provides affordable enrollment options for students. We partner with local organizations, including the Migrant Farmworker Program, CareerSource, and the Educational Opportunity Center, to offer financial aid to qualifying participants.

Our Adult Education Program assists both local residents and newcomers in achieving their goals, whether that involves obtaining a GED® or enhancing English language skills to unlock further educational and career opportunities.

We offer two primary courses: GED® Preparation and English as a Second Language (ESL). Both programs feature a range of scheduling options, including in-person, evening, online, and hybrid classes. Additionally, we provide Integrated Education and Training (IET) programs for qualifying students, ensuring a seamless transition into the workforce. Our dedicated staff, many of whom are bilingual and include program graduates, brings valuable experience to help students navigate their educational journey.
