Graduation Game Plan

      No comments
We will have for next 4 Mondays the program "Graduation Game Plan" sponsored by the mayor's office.

 The "Graduation Game Plan" outlines the steps to help students graduate from high school, prepare for life after graduation, gain the workforce skills needed, and learn about personal management skills. 
Students will have the opportunity to sit down with responsible adult mentors to map educational and career goals.

The program takes place in the Large Meeting Room on Mondays:

March 24,31, April 7, 14 at 3:30 pm.

New Programs at Carnegie

      No comments
Team,

 We are happy to announce that we have 2 new additions to our adult programming:

 Knitting and Crochet Classes:

 This classes became possible due to Beatriz's successful efforts in finding volunteers to teach these classes. The classes will be available in both English and Spanish.

 The schedule for the program:

 Every Wednesday, 1-3pm (in SMR)
Healthy Cooking Classes:
As a result of ongoing partnership with Texas A&M, we are now offering free adult nutrition program “Healthy Food, Healthy Families”. This program is a seven session series. Every session has a new meal preparation presentation.  In the end of the program (after attending at least 6 sessions), the participants will be awarded a certificate of completion and a book. Unofficially we call the sessions “Healthy Cooking Classes”, and the first class took place last week on March 6 at 9:15am. 

The schedule for the program:

March 6, March 27, April 3, April 10, April 17, April 24   -     9:15-10:15am
March 13 – 10:30-11:30am

March 20 – no class.
(in SMR)

It came to our attention that HCC will now collect $20 registration fee for the ESL/GED classes.

Please keep this in mind when you provide the information about the HCC courses to the library visitors.
