This program is for students whose first and/or preferred language is Spanish.  All curriculum and learning are the same as what is provided in the English HSE program.  Spanish HSE classes are held in the evenings.

Students in the Spanish HSE program will access:

• Classes and tutoring taught in Spanish

• Learning materials written in Spanish

• The HSE subject tests given in Spanish

Upon enrollment, all HSE students decide on the college or career path to take after graduating.  The Transitions Team helps them build skills to prepare for success after graduation.  All LearningQuest adult students have access to the benefits of Transition Services, which include:

When inmates buy phone cards, call "Collect," or purchase items from the commissary, the profit goes into a fund to benefit inmates called the Inmate Welfare Funds.  These funds provide the educational program in the jail.

​

Whether they finish while serving their time or after being released, LearningQuest is there to get them the education they need to pass the High School Equivalency test.

Inmates send a request form to the HSE instructor for assessment to enroll in literacy tutoring or the HSE program. As a Inmates also receive Transition Services for success after release.
