The Literacy Education for Adults and Families (LEAF) Program provides a range of classes for adults, including English as a Second Language, Computer Skills, and GED classes. We also offer a new class called Childcare Professions for ESL Students, for immigrants interested in pursuing an education and career in child development. The LEAF Program also has a tutoring program for those students who need extra help with English. Our classes run daily from 9:00 AM until 8:00 PM. Registration is ongoing throughout the year.
