Program Requirements

All students enrolled in the College and Career Readiness (CCR) programs (ABE, AHS, and GED/HiSET) are required to regularly attend the classes they register for. Students are expected to attend 80% of class meetings. For continued participation in the program, students must take periodic progress tests on the content areas required.

Students who do not meet the minimum attendance requirement or are absent for 90 consecutive days will be evaluated to determine continued participation in the program.

To maintain good standing in our program, students must also abide by the CCC Student Code of Conduct .
