“I took the email I received about this program as a sign. I don’t want to be one of those people that say I’ll do it later because later turns into next year and so on. My motivation is my family; I know in order to achieve more in life I need my GED so I can get into college and learn more. You can never know enough; knowledge is power.”
– Cesar, earned his GED in 5 months
