Hall of Flags

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 08:08:55 -0500

The Maine Adult Education Association held the annual Maine Adult Education Day at the Hall of Flags in the Statehouse on February 10. For the 8^th year, Governor Baldacci took part in the event, talking with adult learners many of whom are dislocated workers and speaking to the group regarding the importance of adult education in the development of Maine’s workforce. Six adult learners, all involved in retraining or preparation for higher education, offered compelling remarks about their circumstances and the difference Maine Adult Education made for them.

The MSAD 61 & 72 Regional Adult and Community Education program participated in the morning event which included a series of theme displays on High School Completion, English as a Second Language, Family Literacy, Workforce and Skill Training, WorkReady Employability Training, and College Transitions; all critical elements of the Maine Adult Education system.

MSAD 61 & 72 Adult Ed hosted the College Transitions display, and two current College Transitions students addressed the Governor and the audience. Valerie Ramunno and Barbara Mitchell shared their success in achieving a positive transition to college as students of the College Transitions Program. Each told a story of how they overcame academic and personal challenges with the support of the College Transition program and the staff at the Crooked River Adult and Community Education Center.

Individual programs met with their legislators and student groups visited various public hearings in progress and toured the House and Senate Chambers. On February 10, both House and Senate passed a joint resolution, sponsored by Rep. Peggy Rotundo and Senator Richard Rosen, and cosponsored by all members, acknowledging the vital role of adult education in Maine.
