How has your decision to continue your education impacted you and/or your family?
“Deciding to continue my education has encouraged me to do something, anything other than nothing. I’ve decided to finally get my driver’s license. I’m wearing ‘grown man’ clothes.” –Danny Smith, III, GED & SCC College Writing Student

“Well, first off, it was a life changing moment for me. I really was so proud and felt so grown on how I made it all the way to the actual written test. In the beginning, I was very intimidated and a bit unsure. I couldn’t get past how I was going to write an essay for college. But honestly, Ms. Litz gave me so much encouragement, which made the whole experience a whole lot easier.” – Bridgette Chiago, GED & SCC College Writing Student

As you consider your academic and creative endeavors since starting school, how have you developed intellectually and emotionally in relationship to your own educational, personal and/or professional goals?
“I would have to give credit to my Higher Power for waking in the morning, also for giving me the courage and strength to open my mind to understand that I have a purpose in my journey.” – Terry Lynn Greymountain
