My name is Brianna Lang. I came to this school in late November in hopes of getting my GED. Well here I am February 2nd and waiting on my certificate to come in the mail! I am so grateful for the staff at Colleton County Adult Ed and how much they truly care about their students.
If it wasn't for the faith they had in me, I would not have been able to finish so quickly!! Thank you!
Coming to Adult Education was one of the best opportunities I've ever experienced. All the staff are extremely comforting and helpful. Online and in the classroom allows you to work at your own pace, and helps you focus on what you don't know.
A huge thank you to Mrs. Ginger, Coach Ritter and Mr. Palmer for all of their encouragement and help!
