Some classes require additional testing to register. Click on the icons (pictures) and videos below by each class to see more information and requirements. Ask your teacher or see an advisor to see if you qualify (or need to test) or if you have questions.
We also offer English Language Learning (ELL), GED, College Preparation, math, and more classes. If you miss the registration deadline or do not qualify for one of the Career Pathways trainings yet, new students can start the above classes at the beginning of each month if they have completed the registration process by the last Wednesday of the month (however, some classes may be full and have a waiting list).
