GED
The GED (General Educational Development) test is a nationally recognized certificate that is awarded in
Colorado as a High School Equivalency. It is usually accepted by colleges and universities as a High School Diploma, although different schools require different total scores, as they do with requiring minimum high school grade point averages.  A registration fee of $20 is requested upon enrollment, and is applied towards the GED testing fees after 12 hours of instruction.  GED instruction will end in June, and resume in September following the regular 9-R School District schedule.

ABE
Through Adult Basic Education we provide assistance to adults needing improvement in basic skills such as math, writing, reading, or workplace skills. Some of our students are high school graduates, and we often assist former students who have gone on to college.  ABE schedules also follow the 9-R format, and classes will begin following the summer break.

ESOL
We offer English as a second language on Monday through Thursday for adults who are learning English. We can help novice to advanced English speakers, for a registration fee of $20.  The summer session of ESOL is June through July  from 5-8 in the evenings at the Adult Education Center, for a fee of $5.
