Our Vision

West Area Adult School

West Area Adult School's vision is that adult education programs will be delivered with integrity and at the highest level of quality and service. West Area Adult School is a place Where Adults Achieve Success.

Classes are open to adults 16 years or older who are not enrolled in a K-12 school. Enrollment is open-entry/open-exit with students progressing at their own pace toward their academic, career, and/or personal goals.

Daytime and evening classes are offered on-site, as well as at various locations in Polk County. Small class sizes enable individualized instruction.
