Our Accelerated students also receive breakfast and lunch on-site at the school campus, as well as a quality education by our qualified and committed teachers.
Each year our Adult Education group puts on a Recycling Fair and invites the community to come in and see how to reuse discarded material to make something beautiful and useful.
Thank you for believing with us that it's never too late to dream and begin again!
Every Saturday morning at 6:00 a.m., adults young and old from around Puerto Lempira arrive on the school campus to begin their one-year program to finish their high school education. It inspires the soul to watch these hard working students sacrificing their Saturdays to reach the goal of receiving a diploma.
Our Accelerated (Acelerado) Program serves as a safety net for students facing a variety of circumstances. Some have recently switched over from our full time program, now needing to work full time in their final years of high school to help support their parents and siblings. Some are parents of Abundant Life students themselves, returning to finish a goal that had been out of reach in the past.
Jalmar
This is Jalmar, a husband and father of three, who studies in our Saturday adult education program. Jalmar will graduate with a high school degree in 2020.
Jalmar speaks to the impact of the Adult Education program in his life: “I started working as a boy and I continue to work hard so that my family can live well. I was not able to reach high school graduation because my parents did not have the resources. I started working as a driver’s assistant and then I learned to be a mechanic which is how I support my family today. Abundant Life Institute’s Adult Education program motivated me to continue my schooling to reach my objective and complete my dream of a high school education and to be a professional.”
And to ALI’s impact in the community: “Many youth have been able to reach their dreams. For many years in the past, we did not have this opportunity to study in our region. Many thanks to Abundant Life Institute for the new opportunities that you have brought to the Miskito people to improve the welfare of all. God rain down thousands of abundant blessings to everyone who has given their grain of sand to be able to help young people, single moms, orphans and fathers reach their dreams.”
