Area libraries starting to offer diploma programs

by Janice Neumann, Daily Southtown

The staff of the Green Hills Public Library District in Palos Hills hope a new option there gives adults who never finished high school a chance at a better future. The library recently launched the Career Online High School and five scholarships to make the high school degree and career certificate program affordable. The degree is for adults age 21 or older and must be completed in 18 months or fewer. Candidates also must take a self-assessment to ensure they are a good fit and then complete a prerequisite online course with a passing score of 70 percent or better to be accepted.
