ACE Weekly Update -- September 29th, 2017
What's Coming Up:
Oct. 2nd-6th
Reminders:
If you completed one or more adult education classes without getting dropped, you should have tested this week. If you have not, please contact your coach or the office ASAP to sign up for the next test.
We will begin making new adult education schedules next week. We want to make sure you get a new schedule BEFORE Thursday, so that you get into classes before the new adult ed students choose classes (that's when classes start to fill up). If you and your coach will be able to meet before Thursday, you don't have to attend Returning Student Scheduling. Otherwise, you may want to attend Returning Student Scheduling and then confirm your schedule with your coach when you meet.
The new session of adult education classes begins on Monday, Oct. 9th. Certification and college classes continue during the adult education break.
Workshop Alert! Thurs. Oct. 5th
"Academic Planning: Choosing Your College Classes"
Though you might just be starting out in college, it's never too early to start creating your college road map. We'll help you check what classes are required for your major and plan which ones to take when. Through this process, you'll be able to plan your expected graduation date!
Thursday, Oct. 5th 1-2:30 PM or 4-5:30 PM in Building 7 Room 176! Friends welcome.
