The GED® 

The revised 2014 GED® is a four-subject computerized test that is the only nationally recognized high school equivalency test. Students are tested in Science, Social Studies, Reasoning through Language Arts, and Mathematics Reasoning.  Once all tests have been completed with passing scores the state will issue you a GED® credential and you will receive a transcript to use for admission into college, training programs or job advancement.  

Our GED® program:

• Instruction in the basic skills of reading, writing, mathematics, science and social studies.
• Students can learn at their own pace.
• Each student is provided with a learning plan that is supported by the instructional assistance and guidance of the GED® teacher..
• The program is free to students who are 16 years of age or older and who have officially withdrawn from high school.
• This is an open entry/open exit program.
