Show Mothers' program offers diplomas A program sponsored by the Alpine School District Community and Adult Education Department offers area mothers who have not graduated from high school an opportunity to obtain their high school degree. This program is housed at the Central High School in Pleasant Grove, 110 S. 100 East. "Mothers of all ages who live within the Alpine School District are welcome and encouraged to return to school to finish their high school education," said Dr. Susan Stone, principal of the facility. The Mothers' program offers a wide variety of coursework including in-cluding parenting, homemaking and business skills. In additions, Mothers' High School students can participate in the Assisted Study program, which enables them to earn credit at their own pace as competencies are mastered. A special aspect of the program is the nursery for children of mothers who are enrolled in morning classes. The school operates Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to noon. The Assisted Study Program runs from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. Registration for new students will begin Monday, Aug. 25, at 9 a.m. at the Pleasant Grove Mothers' High School. The telephone number is 785-8665. The registration fee is $23, plus a $20 book deposit. If books are returned, $10 of the book deposit is refundable. If you are a student new to the Mothers' High School, you need to bring a copy of your high school transcript to registration or call for a transcript or call for a transcript evaluation at 756-9671, ext. 213. |
