Q: How can I enroll in Adult Ed computer classes?

Q: How much do I need to know before I can take the computer class, and what will I learn?
A: You need to know . . . absolutely nothing! This class is for the novice, who has a new computer and doesn’t know what to do with it; someone considering purchasing a computer and would like to try one out to see if they like it; or someone who feels they need to learn some basic computer skills to keep up with today’s technology.
This is also a class for the adult high school diploma student who needs to earn the required credits for our diploma.
Q: What are the days and hours for the classes?
A: See the schedule of classes in the on-line catalog.
Q: How long are the classes? Are they based on semesters?
A: All classes are competency based classes. That means that when you can demonstrate competency in a subject by completing the assignments, and passing the tests, you will be awarded the credits. So, the length of time is up to how fast you can do the work. We don’t work on semester schedules.
Q: Do I have to come to class?
A: Yes – 80% attendance is required in all classes.
Q: What are the fees for classes? Will I need to purchase books?
A: There are no fees for any Adult Education classes. They are open to the public. It is not necessary to purchase any books, we have classroom copies. Some books are available for purchase, if desired.
Q: Is there Summer School?
A: Yes, for the students that desire a year round schedule. There is a short break between the end of the regular school year and summer school – and another break between summer school and the beginning of the new school year.
