Casper College High School Equivalency info sessions in March
“The Casper College High School Equivalency program is offering free information sessions through the Lee and Felicia Castellow Adult Learning Center (CALC) on March 3 and 5.”
The first two sessions are scheduled for Tuesday, March 3, at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. The next three sessions will take place on Thursday, March 5, at 9 a.m. and 1 or 6 p.m. The CALC requires all students who want to work on earning their High School Equivalency Certificate through the CALC’s program to attend one of the five sessions.
The free service is open to the public. The High School Equivalency preparation includes social studies, science, language arts, reading, writing, and math.
For those aged 25 and older who are not high school graduates, the median earnings are $734 per week, compared with $946 per week for high school graduates. That means high school graduates will make $11,024 more per year than those without a high school diploma, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Office of Occupational Statistics and Employment Projections as of Oct. 25, 2024.
The CALC also offers English as a Second Language classes, and every student seeking additional education will receive assistance in finding a college and exploring career pathways.
