An open house at Peninsula College on Saturday, March 19, aims to put earning a high school diploma within reach of anyone who desires it.

Visitors are invited to stop by Maier Hall, Room E148, for information and refreshments between 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

The College’s High School 21+ (HS21+) high school diploma program offers adults the chance to earn their high school diploma in as little as 10 weeks. Created with working adults and parents in mind, Peninsula College offers a number of courses online and in the classroom, allowing students to complete work according to their own schedule.

High School 21+ is a competency based program in which students demonstrate competency in a variety of ways including work and life experience. Classes combine basic education with high school curriculum, preparing students to embark on their chosen college or career future. Students must be at least 21 years old to receive their diploma, but may begin working toward their diploma before turning 21.

Cost for the program is $25 per quarter with scholarships available. For more information, email Laura Brogden at lbrogden@pencol.edu.
