Earn Your High School Diploma Now!

There has never been a better time to earn your High School Diploma than NOW! With small class sizes and an individualized approach to learning, Maranacook Adult and Community Education offers adult students the perfect learning environment to achieve success! The High School Equivalency Test (HiSET) is now being administered in adult education programs across the state of Maine. The HiSET consists of the following five subtests: Language Arts Reading, Language Arts Writing, Science, Social Studies, and Mathematics. There is NO COST for Maine residents to prepare for and take the HiSET. Local adult education programs provide HiSET testing, preparation materials, pre-tests, and instruction, all at no cost to the learner.

To learn more about our High School Diploma program, please call our Director, Steve Vose, at 685-4923 x1009 for more information.

We have two high school completion options:

Option One: Students who only need a handful of credits to complete their diploma as can do so through MDI Adult Education. Credits can be earned remotely though an intake and pre-assessment are required. Contact us!

Option Two: Students who successfully complete the HiSET® (think: GED®) will be awarded a High School Equivalency Diploma which affords the student the same rights and privileges as a credit-bearing diploma. A preparation plan can be done remotely under teacher guidance though an intake, pre-assessments, and practice tests are required. Contact us!

NEW to this year’s educational program are the online HiSET tutoring and instructional resources. Students can study and achieve their dream of achieving a high school diploma from the comfort of their home. A limited supply of laptops and internet ports will be available for students who do not have the necessary technology.

If interested, please contact steve_vose@maranacook.com or 685-4923 x1009.

Free class for enrolled high school diploma students.  The class can also serve as a prerequisite for college programs in the medical or science fields for a fee.
