Did you make a New Year's Resolution to continue your education? Whether "continue" means obtaining your high school diploma, preparing for a college or technical career, or even learning a new skill, Mt. Blue Adult and Community Education has something for you! Call and pre-register for Orientation which will be held on January 26 from 9-3. We will ask you to come in prior to that day to complete paperwork and do some placement testing in a quieter setting. Then Orientation Day will be an informative and fun day...a time to meet other students, meet the staff and tour the facility, and meet with the instructors to set up classes. Lunch will be available for all attendees. The staff is looking forward to meeting you, so call today at 778-3460!
If you are interested in learning a new skill through our enrichment classes and are anxiously awaiting the Community Ed Course Catalog, it should be available in your mailbox and on line (rsd9.maineadulted.org) by the first week of February. Those classes will begin after school vacation, or February 27.
Make 2017 great....do something for yourself!
