Adult Education

two gators with a crest
 
Adult Education at Gallatin Gateway School District #35 originated in 2004. Learning enriches our lives regardless of age. The purpose of the Gallatin Gateway Adult Community Education program is to provide a diverse range of quality and affordable programs that enhance and inspire our community to meet their personal needs and goals.
 
Our Adult Education classes are for adults and children 16 and older. Adults take classes for a variety of reasons including lifelong learning, skill acquisition for employment, leisure, health and fitness, or to simply have fun and socialize. Our adult classes are geared towards adults who are not concerned about receiving college credit. There are no tests, grades, or attendance requirements. You take classes because you want to learn in a relaxed environment.
 
We strive to stay in touch with the latest trends in technology, fitness, recreation, arts, foreign languages, personal finance, and much more. We hope you will join us over the course of this year. Check back often as courses may be added throughout the semester!
