have so many ESOL students! 
We need a bigger place to 
celebrate. 
 

ABE Classes = Graduation
Students receive their 
high school GED diploma

ESOL Celebration = Certificate of 
Accomplishment for one year

(Graduation for ESOL

Our class is Level 3 and 4
officially. We do have some 
Level 2 and Level 5 students
