The Adult Education Program provides adults with the
opportunity to improve their basic reading, writing, and
math skills. Students may work on basic skills to
improve their ACT scores, ASSET
scores, to take the Official GED®
Test, to improve their
employability skills, to advance
their workplace skills, or to gain personal
satisfaction. The program is an
open-entry, open-exit program which
means you can begin anytime. All incoming
students are evaluated and placed in classes to upgrade
deficiencies. Instruction is diagnostic,
prescriptive, self-paced, and individualized.
Students have access to computers and modern curriculum.
Small group and individual instruction are available
during the day and evening hours at no cost to
participants. Classes are provided on campus and
at satellite locations. Upon successful completion of the GED
exam, you will be awarded an Arkansas High
School Diploma by the Arkansas
Department of Career Education.
And, you will be invited to participate in our end of the year
Graduation Ceremony.
