As we move through the winter, we are pleased to offer the number and variety of classes that we do. We also wanted to remind you that we have a vision for how all of these classes and programs fit together. We wish to provide a comprehensive program that is responsive to the needs of our diverse community. Our numerous programs allow for such opportunities in basic education, career technical training, and personal enrichment.

We seek to affirm our students as lifelong learners who are informed and contributing members of their families, work force and community.

We hope that in the variety of choices, you are able to see yourself under this vision. If there are courses that we do not offer that you feel are needed for you to achieve this vision, please contact us and share your thoughts. We are consistently looking to grow and diversify our learning opportunities. If you are hoping or wanting a particular learning opportunity, no doubt there are others out there who would feel the same way, especially in light of serving over 30,000 students each year. Please feel free to contact us via email or phone and share your thoughts. In addition, we send out class surveys for many of our courses and utilize this data to improve our offerings; thank you in advance for taking the time to fill out these surveys.

Stay warm this winter! We look forward to continuing our relationship with you through the seasons and achieving our vision together.
