A Message from the Superintendent

Through the hard work and collaboration of our many district partners and key staff members, I am honored to offer the following adult education opportunities. As indicated in the logic model of our ten-year strategic plan The Next Decade: 2020-30, the prioritization of adult education is evident through its inclusion as one of our Keys to 2020. Within the Newark Board of Education, we serve students throughout the learning continuum - from conception to cradle, all the way through to adult education and beyond. The importance of adult education cannot be overstated, as it serves to remind all of us, and in particular our elementary and high school aged students, that the pursuit of education is timeless and extends to all ages. Once again, it is my honor to offer the following opportunities and programs designed to best meet the needs of our adult learners.
