  • Exciting Announcement: A New Chapter for the Christina Adult Education & Literacy Program!

    We are thrilled to share that the Christina Adult Education & Literacy Program is now a proud part of the Sarah Pyle Academy! As we embark on this new journey, we want to assure you that we will continue to offer the same valuable programs that have helped our community thrive:

    ABE/GED: Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes offer an opportunity to build reading, writing and math skills whether you have a secondary credential or not. Many of our ABE students go on to earn a Groves Adult High School Diploma or GED® credential.

    English as a Second Language (ESL): ESL classes can help you attain U.S. citizenship, obtain a driver's license, secure a better job, improve communication with your children's teachers and doctors, and earn your GED or high school diploma.

    James H. Groves Adult High School: James H. Groves Adult High School is a state-approved adult secondary school designed to provide adults and out-of-school youth with an opportunity to complete a high school education and earn a State of Delaware High School Diploma.

    James H. Groves In-School Credit: Open for Christina High School Students ONLY
