VOA Adult High School

Hope through a free high school education

VOA Adult High School offers classes for all levels of adult learners age 21 and up who need a high school diploma. ESL, English, math, science, and social studies classes meet in the evening. Students are enrolled in classes based on their current reading and math levels.

Our competency-based state standard adult high school diploma program is available to students who meet a minimum testing requirement. Others are enrolled in our ESL or Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes to improve their basic skills while gaining knowledge in subjects that are required for the diploma.
