Principal’s Message Here is an update on the funding for Adult Education. Governor Brown released his 2015-16 budget proposal. It contains some very good news for education, and specifically for California’s adult schools. The highlights…. The Budget provides $500 million in the Proposition 98 General Fund for the Adult Education Block Grant, which is an integral component of the state’s workforce development strategy. The block grant will fund programs in elementary and secondary basic skills, classes and courses in citizenship and English as a second language for immigrants, education programs for adults with disabilities, short‑term CTE programs linked to occupations with high employment potential, and programs for apprentices. The inclusion of this language in the proposed budget validates the importance of adult education to our community and the education of California’s workforce, and provides much hope for the implementation of our regional consortium comprehensive plans.
The Adults with Disabilities (AWD) program received a donation from the Candle Lighters. Michele and Vince attended a luncheon in January and were given a certificate for the purchase of market umbrellas, various garden tools; brooms, dustpans, shovels, rakes, hand spades, garden waste containers, compost bins, a rototiller, and wood to update our planter boxes from Dale Hardware. Our teachers and staff appreciate the donation from the Candle Lighters and we all want to say Thank You!
