This program is designed to improve skills in math, oral and written communication, and reading for entry into college courses. This review program is now offered on-line to students who are unable to attend a traditionally scheduled class. Students review reading, writing, math, algebra, and study skills in order to prepare for entry into college.
Students will be using the Blackboard platform to access this program. Students must be comfortable using the computer and have a reliable Internet connection.
