Distance Education

We are currently working on getting a pilot program ready for January of next year, that will allow us to run a distance education program for our students that are outside of the Roswell area.

After our pilot program, we will be able to provide distance education GED and ESL to our students that are able to participate in the program. More information will be posted as soon as we finish our training.

We are also very excited about the upcoming program  and we hope that everyone can participate!
