GED, pre-GED classes offered in South Texas

Coastal Bend College Lott-Canada Facility provides GED preparation courses for those interested in earning a high school equivalency diploma (GED). Classes are offered in reading, writing and mathematics to adults seeking to improve the basic skills necessary to function effectively in their personal and family lives, in the workplace, and in the community. 

Applications are being accepted now through Aug. 26 for the fall quarter which begins Sept. 6.  Orientation for fall quarter will be held Aug. 30-Sept. 1 at the CBC Lott-Canada Facility at 900 W. Corpus Christi St. in Beeville.

Those interested in attending GED or adult education classes must attend either the three-day orientation or the two-night orientation to be enrolled. 

During orientation, students will be given a skills test that determines their classroom placement. Students who are 16 years old must have a court order from a judge to register and 17-year-olds need to have parental consent and documented withdrawal from the last school they attended. 

GED and Adult Basic Education classes are also available in George West, Ingleside, Sinton and Taft.

ESL classes are also available year round in Beeville for English language learners.
