Adult Basic Skills Learning (ESL)
This class is designed for adults whose English is their second language and who need reinforcement in grammar, writing, speaking and reading. The class will be a small group so that all students are guaranteed individual time and the instructor can better meet their needs. The use of educational software, workbooks and educational websites allows students hands-on instructional practice. Monday – Thursday, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Parent Workshops
The purpose of these workshops is to educate parents on issues such as self-esteem, eating habits, child obesity, drug and substance abuse, communication techniques, women’s health, domestic violence and child abuse. Days and time vary.
Ways you can help!
We are always searching for dedicated individuals to volunteer as tutors in providing assistance in math and reading to students who are performing below grade level. Interested candidates must have excellent communication skills, enthusiasm, and the ability to work with K-12th-grade students. Volunteers may work as many hours per week as desired but reliability and consistency are a must.
