The staff of the Greeneville/Greene County Adult Basic Education program were celebrated by the central team administrators on Friday, April 18.  Kim Gass, supervisor of the program, along with Drucilla Miller, Dean of WSCC Greeneville Center, have worked diligently for over seven years to secure approval for the Greeneville center to become an official GED testing site.  This designation now allows local adult students to take the GED exam in Greeneville.  Previously, all GED exams for our area were administered at the Morristown center.  Currently 675 adults from the Greeneville/Greene County area are enrolled as students in the Adult Basic Education program.  Twenty-eight people took the GED exam on the first testing date of April 15, and there was a waiting list of seventeen more applicants!  We applaud Mrs. Gass and Mrs. Miller for their dedication to adult learners in our community in providing this much needed program.  We also applaud all of the students in this program for their diligence and perseverance, and wish them “Only the Best” as they continue their education!
