Our Vision
We are a community of lifelong learners where goals are achieved, challenges are met, and dreams are born and realized.

Our Mission
To teach adult students the literacy skills necessary to become productive, responsible, well-adjusted members of the community thus improving the quality of life for all Georgians. In order that all students realize their full potential, our mission is to marshal resources and use relevant curriculum to provide education and a supportive yet challenging environment that allows for individual, self-paced instruction.

Our Philosophy
Believing that learning is a life-long process, the Cobb/Paulding Adult Education program dedicates itself to recognizing and developing the potential of each student. The staff and faculty lead students in the formation of educational goals. We believe that by giving each student a "restarting point" and providing a self-paced program to accomplish his/her goals, the student has the opportunity to be a productive and well-adjusted person.

SDA 8 - Cobb/Paulding Counties Adult Education program does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, handicapping condition, academic or economic disadvantage, or creed.
