Many people can and do bene
fit from the Adult Basic Educa
tion Program. Some enrolled
may be learning to read and
write or some may be review
ing English, social studies, math
or science. In other words, some
people only need a refresher be
fore taking the high school
equivalency test which is the
objective of the program. This
is the case of Mrs. Christine
Robinson, Route 1, Relief, who
attended Adult Basic Education
Classes at Bee Log School for
only 72 hours. After this period
of time the teacher felt that
Christine could pass the test.
Therefore, arrangements were
made for her to go to the testing
cent|r in Asheville—she went,
took the test and passed.
What is the High School Equi
valency Program? It is a pro
gram whereby an adult who did
not complete his High School
education may take a series of
tests to demonstrate his general
education competence and be
awarded a certificate recognis
ed and generally accepted as
equivalent to a high school dip
loma.
The State Department of Pub
lic Instruction issues the certifi
cates. Christine will receive her
certificate soon. The certificate
is recognised almost without
exception by industry, agencies,
employees, colleges, etc.
If you, for some reason or an
other did not get to finish high
school or cannot read or write,
why not enroll in an Adult Basie
Education Class? For some. It
may mean only a few weeks of
classwork. For others, it may
mean more time. However, the
sooner you enroll the sooner you •
can take the High School Equi-
