Message from Marco, President of San Mateo Adult School Morning ESL Student Council

We have heard amazing stories, how adult education has changed many lives, "open many doors" etc.
These stories are from real people.
People with great ideas, goals and aspirations in life.
Many of us are in low paying  jobs and we need a "hand" to help us do better.
Get new skills, get trained for well paying jobs.
If you really want to serve adult education, please listen to us. then make your  best  decision.
Spending in adult education is actually a investment for the near future.
Many would say that the future of the state are the children and youth, I'm totally agree on that, but in order to have a successful future we have to take care of the present.  And that would be us.
Adult education students!
 
Marco and some of the wonderful students and staff at San Mateo Adult School.
