Important Program Update

Due to significant and unforeseen budget shortfalls, we regret to inform you that we will no longer be offering evening ESOL or ABE/GED classes, and the Graduate 24/7 program will also be discontinued.

Additionally, please note that the Fall Morning ESOL classes (9:00 AM – 11:00 AM) at the PHSC–Dade City location are now full. As a result, we are no longer accepting applications for this time slot.

Important: If you submit and complete an application for any of the full or discontinued sessions listed above, you will not be enrolled, and no refunds will be issued.

We understand the impact these changes may have on our students and community, and we remain committed to exploring future opportunities to restore these vital services. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Sincerely,
Pasco County Adult Education
