Teacher Shari Deghi Coordinator of La Costa Adult School |
The name of the new Adult School is La Costa Adult School. "La Costa"is Spanish for "the coast."
La Costa Adult School is part of ACCEL, our Regional Consortium. All the schools in ACCEL work together to serve the county of San Mateo.
Our own Teacher Shari is the coordinator of La Costa.
Here is some information from Teacher Shari about the school:
La Costa Adult School
The Western Coast of San Mateo County |
La Costa has two locations: Half Moon Bay and Pescadero.
Half Moon Bay just started its first classes on January 11 and already over 200
students are taking English as a Second Language (ESL) classes every Monday and
Wednesday evening from 6-9 pm at Cunha School. La Costa plans to start
GED/HiSET preparation classes this semester and has a waitlist for interested
students.
Puente de la Costa Sur has been serving its residents with
ESL classes for many years and thanks to increased funding through La Costa
Adult School, it is able to increase its offerings. Puente offers ESL,
GED/HiSET preparation, Language Skills for Workforce Careers, and
primary/secondary education in Spanish.
La Costa works closely with Cañada College and a consortium
of all the adult schools and community colleges in San Mateo County to provide
education for immigrants, courses for high school equivalency, career technical
education programs, apprenticeships and classes for disabled adults.
Volunteers are greatly appreciated and La Costa has current
openings for credentialed teachers.
