It’s Adult Education and Family Literacy Week! 🎥 Watch and share this short film that tells the story of adult learner Felicia, a student at Neuhaus Education Center. The video highlights the importance of parents and children reading together and offers an innovative way for technology to help until a parent has acquired those skills for themselves.

As we wrap up the end of the 2022-2023 school year, we would like to say thank you to our administration, staff, and our students. It is not an easy task to take that first step back after months and often times, years of being away from a traditional classroom. That first step is a statement, a choice, and a commitment to a better life for not only themselves, but for their family. Our students overcome adversity, tragedies, and difficulties on a daily basis, but when they receive that diploma, when they accomplish that goal, all the struggles become well worth it. We are so thankful for our students. They continue to inspire all of us at NEMCC AE.

The NEMCC AE team will be using the month of July to learn, prepare, and improve for the upcoming year. In saying that, all classrooms will be closed for the month of July. Classes will resume on Monday, July 31st at 8:00 a.m.

We look forward to serving our community in 2023-2024. Go Tigers!
