The Monterey Adult School is a place for people to come for a chance to acquire the skills and knowledge to be successful in today's world. This may mean becoming more employable, more able to successfully participate in community college or university, or trade school, and/or better able to assist their children in their academic progress. The staff recognizes and responds to each student as an individual with unique needs. In addition, the staff meets each student where he or she is now and helps him/her move forward to where he/she wants to go. Without this "stepping stone" available to them, many would not have the resources to move forward in their life.
