State Law provides admission to Adult Education programs for any resident, 17 years or age or above, who is not pursuing a full-time high school diploma program, and requires the approval of the local Board of Education and Director of Adult Education for the admission of persons less than 17 years of age to Adult Education programs.

A Positive Action Committee shall be formed and convened by the Superintendent or his/her designee, and the Adult Education program shall have representation on said committee.

The Student Services Department of Mt. Ararat High School will notify the Adult Education Office of all drop-outs as soon as possible for the purpose of further counseling.
