  • Mission Statement

     
    The mission of Santa Clara Adult Education is to empower adults of all ages and abilities to succeed in an ever-changing world. 
    Dear Community,

    Congratulations to the 80 adult students of Santa Clara Adult Education who graduated on June 7th. These students are proof that it is never too late to earn a diploma.
    The graduation speaker shared these thoughts with her fellow graduates:
    “I had to drop out in high school because I had a baby. I attempted to come back several times, but I had too many responsibilities. This time, with the help of my teacher, I was able to complete my credits and graduate. Now I can apply for the job of my dreams.”

    Statistics show that having a high school diploma increases the opportunity for employment with a higher income and occupational status. Santa Clara Adult Education offers the opportunity for adults to earn their diploma and receive guidance in a pathway to higher education or job opportunities.

    Take that next step and call...
