Real Student Stories

GLA has made a real impact on the lives of real students in our local communities.

Meet Jennifer Lyles

"I really want to get my GED, so I come to GLA and work hard to make that happen!"

Jennifer always dreamed of earning her GED, but life had a way of putting that goal on hold. Over the years, she built a life full of responsibilities and commitment, yet something was always missing, she longed for the education she never completed.

One day, Jennifer learned about an Adult Basic Education (ABE) program at GLA that could help her work toward her GED. Inspired and determined, she enrolled, knowing it would mean balancing her classes with other obligations. Despite these challenges, Jennifer threw herself into her studies, attending every class, participating actively, and spending countless evenings reading and reviewing on her own.

Each small victory has fueled her commitment to reach her goal, and every challenge becomes another step in her journey.
