Middle Peninsula Regional Adult Continuing Education provides instruction to adults to improve basic academic skills (reading, writing, and math), GED Preparation (for high school equivalency) and ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages). Qualified teachers work with individuals and small classes at local sites throughout the Middle Peninsula of Virginia. Areas of service include Essex, King & Queen, King William, Mathews, Middlesex, and New Kent counties and the Town of West Point. Instruction options include one-on-one tutoring for literacy, small classes in each county, Distance Learning / Online Instruction, and Fast Track / Accelerated GED Preparation Classes, for qualified adult learners. Middle Peninsula RACE also serves as a GED Test Center for area adults. GED test is scheduled quarterly for the community. Adult participants in local ABE/GED programs will have access to more frequent testing opportunities.

Our Mission is to support the local public school systems in fulfilling their mandates and responsibilities to adult learners seeking to acquire the literacy skills needed to fulfill their roles as parents, workers, and members of a democratic community.
