WINTER-SPRING 2020-2021 ANTIOCH ADULT EDUCATION
A Message from Our Principal
Welcome to our new and returning students for the Fall Term.
We are excited to be back and all staff are working hard to prepare for our new
online registration process and creating the Fall course catalog. Antioch Adult
Education is continuing many of our courses and programs through a Distance
Learning Model. We are reimaging and reinventing how we deliver programs and
services to adults in our community.
I hope everyone is staying safe and well at this time. Antioch Adult Education
Will be providing all classes online September 28, 2020 We are accepting new
and returning students for all programs. Although our school is still currently
closed to face-to-face instruction, our teachers and staff are well prepared
to deliver instruction using a variety of online resources. At this time, we do not
have a date when we will be able to resume face-to-face classes, but when we
can, the information will be posted on our website and teachers will inform
students.
While we are eager to present our Fall class offerings, we know that there
are still many questions as we move forward. As we prepare to begin
registration and instruction of courses, know that we will continue to follow
the guidance from state and local health officials, and follow the guidelines
established by our District.
We hope that all of our students, staff, and community members remain healthy
during this time. We are continuously growing and learning as an organization
to reach more adults who can benefit from our program and services long term.
