Back with another Infrequently Asked Question about Public Adult Education! Educators learn from their students too! So we asked Lori, a Public Adult Education Program Director, what she’s learned from her students.

Happy New Year!!! We say that over and over again for a few months after January 1st, but do we really absorb what it means. New Year!! A chance to rebuild what collapsed, to retry things that failed, and to change anything in our control that we want to change.

I woke up feeling very inspired today. My inspiration always comes from my family and my job. My staff, the young adults that I work with and all of the students that come to my program for a second chance.

I have a lot of hope for this year, in my career and in my personal life. I plan to make sure that anybody who comes through my doors at work gets the best possible education and stabilization that we can provide. So far this year, 21 students have graduated with their HiSET Certification. We have many more heading in the same direction. I am honored and blessed to be able to do this work and to make a difference that changes the trajectory of the lives of those we touch!

Cheers to another year of breaking down barriers, and making policy changes that build equity ACROSS THE BOARD, for all humans. Continue to show support and do your work with love and passion!!!
Welcome 2025! 🎂🎊🎉

We are very grateful for our partnership with Boston Municipal Courts, especially, but not exclusively, Charlestown, Roxbury and Dorchester, and the Committee for Public Council, Public Defenders Division, who share in our mission to divert our emerging adults from prosecution and incarceration when possible. Together, we have diverted many young adults to my program, and that has changed the trajectory of their lives. We will continue to grow these partnerships in the upcoming year, so that our emerging adults can continue to prosper.

This little cutie pie, Rory, donated a whole bag of socks with his own money, for our clients in need. Thank you for your kind generosity!!

We are thrilled to announce that we have 16 HiSET graduates and many more who have just one or two tests left! We are so proud of all of our students, who fight against the adversity in their lives and return to school. It certainly is not an easy journey, but it is a very rewarding one. These 16 students have gone on to a job, job training, or post- secondary education.

To all of our students, we are honored that you chose our program to continue your education. We enjoy working with all of you. To our graduates, go show the world exactly what you are made of!
