The Newport Adult Learning Centers offer a variety of services to area families.  Our Centers are located in Newport, Alexandria and Dayton, Kentucky.  The programs are free and have daytime and evening hours. Students (ages 16 and older) come in when they have time and stay as long as they can. 

GED Program—This is an individualized study program to prepare for and to pass the GED test.  There is computerized study, video tutoring and textbooks available for study.  We also give the official GED Pre-test and certify test readiness which is necessary to take the GED test in Kentucky.  We have hundreds of graduates every year!
