The El Monte Rosemead Adult School proudly hosts a
comprehensive Adult Basic Education Program (ABE), Adult Secondary Education
Program (ASE), and a High School Equivalency Program (HSE). These programs have been serving the local
community for the last 60 years. The ABE program is designed for students who
wish to strengthen their reading, writing and math skills before entering the
high school program. The ASE program
provides a variety of ways for students to obtain their high school diploma or
simply improve their skills. The HSE
program offers testing and preparation for students who want to obtain a high
school equivalency certificate such as the GED or HiSET. We are proud to announce the following
additions and changes to our programs.
The ABE
course is now offered as an independent lab course. Our ABE lab allows students on a limited
schedule the opportunity to complete the course in a self-paced lab setting
while being guided by a certified lab instructor. A much needed Adult Basic Literacy course
was also added to provide help for native English speaking adults with limited
literacy skills.
The ASE
program at the El Monte Rosemead Adult School is one of few programs in California
that offers teacher directed instruction.
This instruction has recently been modernized with the addition of two
mobile Chromebook labs. Students also
have the opportunity to complete their courses in an independent lab setting,
home studies, and in an online format.
The El
Monte Rosemead Adult School is an approved Pearson Vue and HiSet testing
center. Students can take the GED and
HiSET high school equivalency exams at EMRAS in addition to enrolling in our
new High School Equivalency laboratory.
This is an open enrollment course that helps students with the various
sections of these exams.
EMRAS is
committed to the educational needs of the community. We strive to adapt to an ever-changing
educational environment. We pride ourselves
in providing convenient, low-cost, and
quality educational opportunities to our community.
