In addition to our academic core credit recovery classes are for adult learners we also offer classes for those who need to take an elective class/es in order to meet graduation requirements for their high school credential.

High school electives encourage students to explore their interests with creative, hands-on learning. All high school courses are designed to help students find what interests them and follow that path. Career-focused electives allow students to explore a possible post secondary major or career interest.

We offer these classes on a case by case basis. Classes are designed for the student’s interests and may include Art, Physical Education, Personal Health & Fitness, Life Skills, and Introductory Finance among others. Our credit recovery program provides course work that students can complete independently online, in-person, or a hybrid with person-in and online class time.

All students receive individual learning plans to help them meet their educational goals.

Subjects: TBD in consultation with the instructor

Courses can be started at any time according to the instructor’s schedule. Call for availability.

We offer options for high school completion: the High School Equivalency Test (HiSET) or you can enroll in our diploma program. We will sign you up for intake, which includes some paperwork and standardized testing (CASAS), go over your transcript and identify what courses/electives you need to take, and work to create an individual learning plan and get set up with an instructor.

If you're an adult without a high school diploma, the High School Equivalency Test (HiSET™) could be your route to improved career prospects, further education, and increased earnings potential. HiSET™ replaces the GED in Maine.

HiSET™ provides adults with the opportunity to obtain a high school equivalency certification with the same legal standing as a high school diploma. Through a pre-testing, preparation, and testing program, it allows test-takers to demonstrate proficiency in the academic skills and knowledge expected by employers and post-secondary institutions. HiSET™ consists of five subtests:

Language arts- Reading

Language Arts- Writing

Mathematics

Science

Social Studies

Once enrolled, students take and pass the Official HiSET Practice Test then schedule the tests at one of our testing locations (Machias, Calais, and for members of the Passamaquoddy tribe at Indian Township). In most cases, the full battery of tests are not given on the same day. Call our office to schedule the exams.

You must be at least 17 years old to take the HISET Exams and need an ID the day of the exam/s. Call/email our office to set up an appointment: info@wcadulteducation.com or 207-255-4917
