Program Overview

Miami County Adult Education has been around for 20+ years. We have assisted Miami County residents, aged 16-68, to overcome hurdles and earn their diploma. Our trained and caring staff offer what students need to reach their goals. We are a "one-room schoolhouse" offering individualized instruction in math, reading, language arts, and writing in preparation for achieving a high school equivalency diploma. We are able to work both one on one and in small groups, tailoring teaching methods to the student. We are located near Maconaquah Park in Peru, just off South Broadway (S.R. 19).

Cost Info

All programming is free to the Miami County community.
