Bridgewater Adult High School offers courses for adult students who want to complete or upgrade their high school diplomas. We only accept students over 18 who have been out of school for a year. Our classes are run in-person and independently (online) and we follow the same school calendar as the school system.
Our online courses use the latest technology and servers. We have high-speed internet, iPads, Chromebooks and Windows laptops for in-person classes.
Our class timetable is specifically designed to allow for adult students to attend and to live life. Students can attend part-time or full-time as their job, family and personal lives allow.
Our in-person schedule has time for extra help and practice. Math help, essay-writing or help with applying for scholarships and student loans are just some examples of how we have helped our students in the past.
All of our courses are fully recognized by both NSCC and all universities. If you need a course to upgrade, need to know what courses to take or need a copy of your transcript, we can help.
