If you’re an adult who wants to learn English, improve your English-language skills or earn a high school equivalency diploma, the Great Neck Public Schools Adult Learning Center offers a variety of classes designed to meet your needs.
A range of English-language classes, from beginning literacy to advanced English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), are offered. In preparation for the Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC) examination, formerly known as the GED, classes are available to improve math, social studies, science, reading and writing skills.
Once enrolled, students may also take elective classes, such as Conversational English, Crossroads Café and Citizenship at no additional charge.
