Basic Skills Programs

Even Start

Even Start is a partnership between Asheboro City Schools and Randolph Community College that allows parents and preschool children to attend school together. Parents participate in GED or ESL classes while their children participate in early childhood education at the same site. In addition, adults develop effective parenting skills. If you live in Randolph County, have a three- or four-year-old and want to earn your GED or improve your reading, writing and math skills, this program may be for you. This is a free program.
