G.E.D. Preparation

We use high quality testing to create an individualized study plan for each student that we work with. Our program specializes in personal interaction between our  students and our team of learning coaches. Literacy and Beyond's staff of teachers and qualified volunteers work tirelessly to deliver one-on-one and group learning opportunities to ensure that our students are having a positive learning experience. 

P.A.C.T. (Parents and Children Together)

The P.A.C.T. classes are opportunities for parents and children to engage in an hour-long session of learning and playing together. In each class, the teacher introduces a new book and classmates experience a game, craft, snack, and songs that compliment the theme of the story. Parents are given hands-on experience to do activities with their children and empowered to begin incorporating these skills at home. 

​Adult Literacy Instruction

Literacy and Beyond provides research proven adult literacy instruction by a certified reading specialist for students who need extra help with reading and writing. After careful assessment, students participate in small classes that provide the support and encouragement they need to build skills and confidence in language arts. 

Early Childhood Education

Developed and directed by Literacy and Beyond's reading specialist, this program for 0-3 year olds is designed to integrate play, discovery, and early literacy activities in a safe and stimulating environment. Learning goals are established for the preschoolers in this program, and parents are encouraged and equipped to reinforce these objectives at home. Childcare is provided at no cost to women enrolled in the GED program.

Personal Development

While at our 2GEN Learning Center, students have the opportunity to develop skills to improve their future success in college and the workforce. A blend of hands on workshops, group learning activities, and self-paced curriculum make learning fun. We also have partner agencies who share expertise in areas such as health care, nutrition and meal preparation, financial planning, managing a household, and caring for children. 

Professional Counseling

Through a partnership with Colonial Woods Counseling Center, our students can receive counseling services from Lynda Ross, MA, LLPC at the 2GEN Learning Center. Counseling is voluntary and at no cost to students. This extra support offers students a chance to build on their personal and emotional strengths and empowers them to persevere through the challenges of improving their education.

Celebrate Our Students' Success!

"I am unbelievably thankful for this program and everything it helps with! Being a parent who did not get to finish school, it seemed nearly impossible to pick up where I left off. This program has made it possible, and without it I may never have gotten the chance. This is the only program like it and beneficial to more than you could possibly know!"
​- Ashley, recent G.E.D. graduate

"Being a young single mother of seven children with a lack of support and adequate childcare, this program allows me to bring my children which helps me overcome that barrier that has held me back from being able to complete high school as well as any other GED program."
​- Kassandra, recently passed her third of four GED tests
