Pre-College classes prepare students for college. Classes are offered for people who want to improve their reading, writing and math skills and/or finish high school.

Students will be give a skills assessment before being allowed to register. Students between 16 and 19 years old must get a Release of Student form from their high school before they can register for these classes.

GED - Green River offers General Educational Development preparation classes to help you successfully pass the GED exam. GED classes are $25 per quarter, and are offered on and off campus during the day and in the evening.

If you are 16 or 17 you will need to provide a "Release of Student" form from your high school before you can attend GED classes at Green River. No one under 16 years old may attend these classes.

For more information, visit our GED website or call (253) 833-9111, ext. 2319.

ABE - Our Basic Skills program is for adults who may have experienced educational gaps and missed the opportunity to develop certain skills or complete necessary steps in their education. We offer different kinds of help, from traditional-style classes to individualized instruction for particular skill development.

Students may work on GED preparation, basic reading, writing and mathematics, career exploration and study skills. These classes help adults who want to improve, refresh or learn basic skills in English writing, reading and math or computation.

Self-improvement and understanding, based on individual needs rather than group competition, are the foundation of the ABE program. Students participate in the planning and evaluation of the quality and quantity of their work. They work at a realistic pace in terms of their strengths and needs.

Requirements:

Students will be given a skills assessment before being allowed to register. Students between 16 and 19 years old must get “Release of Student” forms from their high schools before they can register for these classes.

Cost:

$25 tuition per quarter.

High School Completion - If you didn’t finish high school and would like to get your diploma, you can get it through our High School Completion Program. This program is geared towards adults, 19 years old and older who want to:

  • Earn a high school diploma through credit classes
  • Prepare for entry into a vocational or technical program
  • Learn the skills necessary to attend two or four-year colleges

When you graduate from this program, you will meet state and Green River requirements for graduation and receive an official Washington high school diploma.

Although this program is designed for adults, students under 19 years old can participate in certain circumstances.
