2450 - ADULT AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION

ADULT EDUCATION ENROLLMENT PROCEDURE

Persons who have reached the age of sixteen (16) and are not enrolled in compulsory education may enroll in adult education programs. Students under the age of sixteen (16) having special needs may enroll with special permission from the Area Superintendent of the center the student wishes to attend. Both a withdrawal card and a transcript from the last school attended are required. Students currently attending the regular high school program may co-enroll in adult education with special permission.

1. APPLICATION FORM

   Every student entering adult education for the first time must complete the Adult/Community Demographic Application Form. All appropriate data contained on the form will be entered into the computer as specified in the Data Manual.

2. TESTING

   Each adult student must be evaluated using a State-approved entry-level test instrument to determine academic level. This requirement is waived for fee supported classes, GED, and high school credit courses.

3. REGISTRATION

   Once the appropriate academic level has been determined, the student will complete a registration form for enrollment into the appropriate program.

4. DRUG ADDENDUM

   Each student enrolling in adult education must complete and sign the Drug Addendum Form concerning the use of prohibited substances and weapons.

5. CO-ENROLLED STUDENTS
   
   Students enrolled in the regular high school day program must have special permission to enroll in adult education. A co-enrollee form signed by the host school counselor, principal and the student's parent must be presented at the time of registration.

For more information and sample forms refer to the Adult/Community Education Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual.
