Adult Basic Education (ABE)

ABE classes provide basic skills instruction in reading, language, and/or mathematics and critical thinking skills to prepare students for GED® preparation, postsecondary education, and/or employment.

GED® Preparation

The purpose of the GED® program is to prepare students to obtain the knowledge and skills necessary to pass the Official GED® Tests and get their State of Florida High School Diploma. GED® Ready, the official practice test for the GED®, is given as part of the GED® preparation program. Results of those tests will guide instruction and assess readiness for the actual GED® test. Students completing GED® preparation will also be better prepared for postsecondary education.

The GED® consists of four content-area assessments:

  • Reasoning through Language Arts (RLA), which tests a student’s ability to read closely, write clearly, and edit and understand written text
  • Mathematics, which tests quantitative and algebraic problem solving
  • Science, which includes life science, physical science, earth and space science
  • Social Studies, which includes civics and government, U.S. history, economics, geography and the world
