Welcome to the Office of Adult Education. We administer grant funded programs in Adult Basic Education, GED, and English for Speakers of Other Languages.  Our goal is to promote stronger families, upward mobility, and active citizenship through effective adult basic education services.  Our classes support adults who wish to advance their education towards a high school credential, training, and/or post secondary degrees.  Programs offer classes during the day and evening in your community.  Please let us know if you have any questions or need more information about our services.
