🌟 **AEL STUDENT SUCCESS STORY!** 🌟

We could not be more proud of **John Mills II** and the incredible work he has done to change the direction of his life!

John enrolled in the **NCSD Adult Education & Literacy Program in February 2026** with a goal of earning his HiSET. Just **three and a half months later**, on May 27, he accomplished that goal! 🎓

But John didn’t stop there. After earning his HiSET, he applied to **Mineral Area College** and is now pursuing his passion for law enforcement through the **Mineral Area College Law Enforcement Academy**, working toward his Missouri POST certification. 👮‍♂️

John’s story is a powerful reminder that **it is never too late to believe in yourself, set a new goal, and move forward.** His determination, hard work, and commitment to his family are truly inspiring.

We are especially proud that John recognized an opportunity, took that first step, and kept going. His success is exactly why Adult Education & Literacy programs matter. ❤️

**John, we are incredibly proud of you and can’t wait to see where your hard work takes you next!**

Congratulations, John! Keep moving forward—you are doing an incredible job! 👏🎓💙

📚🟡 Support the Yellow Glasses Project – Help Build Brighter Futures! 🟡📚

At North County Adult Education & Literacy (AEL), we are incredibly grateful for the continued support of the Dollar General Literacy Foundation (DGLF). Through their generous grants, they have helped us remove barriers for our students by supporting literacy programs, HiSET testing, graduation expenses, instructional materials, and other resources that make education possible. They are truly one of our biggest supporters!

This summer, you can help make a difference too!

🕶️ Purchase a pair of Yellow Glasses for just $2 at your local Dollar General.
💯 100% of the proceeds go directly to supporting literacy programs across the country.

You can also support the Foundation year-round by purchasing participating Dollar General Literacy Foundation chocolate bars and cookies, with 100% of the proceeds benefiting literacy and educational opportunities.

Thanks to initiatives like the Yellow Glasses Project, the Dollar General Literacy Foundation has:
📖 Awarded nearly $16 million in grants this year.
🏫 Supported more than 1,400 schools, libraries, and nonprofits.
👩‍🎓 Helped approximately 1.5 million learners nationwide.

Every pair of glasses, every chocolate bar, and every cookie purchased helps open doors for adult learners who are working hard to earn their high school equivalency, improve their reading skills, prepare for a career, and build a better future for themselves and their families.

Send us your pictures showing your support to add to the post!

❤️ Thank you, Dollar General Literacy Foundation, for believing in adult education and for investing in students like ours. We encourage everyone to stop by Dollar General and show your support!
