The Early School Leaver Program is a cooperative education program designed to provide valuable worksite learning experiences for 16 to 21 year old non-high school completers.  Students who qualify for the program will work part-time in the community in a job related to their areas of interest and ability.

The program helps students earn their GED certificates, explore career interest information, find employment, and encourages them to enroll in the Adult Education Department’s free computer classes or other classes offered by the Department.

Another major goal of the Early School Leaver Program is to assist students in continuing their education at Southwestern Illinois College (SWIC) or other institutions of higher learning.
