What an incredible summer we’ve had at Charlestown Adult Education, Workforce, and Reentry. We are not officially in our school year during the summer, but we remain open so that our young adults in our diversion program have a productive place to spend the day.
This summer, 13 of our young adults have obtained their HiSET/GED before we are actually opened for the fall.
Our small, but devoted team/staff worked hard all summer, while students who once stopped attending traditional high school, attended classes with us over the summer. These students are SMART, TALENTED, and COMPLETELY MISUNDERSTOOD. With the right resources, programming, understanding, love and support, these young adults can get their education, obtain employment, and stabilize their lives so that their future looks so much different than their past.
We are honored to continue working with these amazing young adults. We can’t wait to see what the fall holds! We are grateful to welcome a few new partners this year who will be providing programming for our recidivism prevention program. This programming is vital to the success of our young adults and offers financial literacy, career readiness, gun violence prevention, and mental health counseling. If the right resources are in place, they will continue to come and more importantly, change the trajectory of their lives!
We can’t wait to welcome new students to our program on September 14th!
