Congratulations to Tristen Henderson for passing her GED® and earning her Illinois High School Diploma. Tristen’s son, Jackson, was her biggest motivation to pass the GED®. Her journey started shortly after she found out she was expecting. She worked hard to complete the Social Studies and Reasoning Through Language Arts sections of the test before the birth of her son. After a short break, she returned and completed the Math and Science sections. She was appreciative of the support and encouragement she received from her instructor, Lindsey Larson. Tristen is very proud of her accomplishment, and we are, too!

Spoon River College offers free classes to help you prepare to pass the GED®. We offer various class times to help meet your schedule in Canton, Havana, and Macomb. Contact us by calling 309-649-6278 or click www.src.edu/ged.
