HFM BOCES will offer evening and morning opportunities to

Riverfront Center in Amsterdam.
A daytime option is offered from 9 a.m. – noon on Tuesday,
Feb. 16 and Thursday, Feb. 18 at the Montgomery County
Literacy Project in Riverfront Center. Potential GED students must attend both days of

The orientation classes are for adults, age 21 and older,
who want to prepare for the GED exam. A few openings may be
available for individuals age 18 - 20 who are no longer

important that students arrive on time and plan to stay for
the full 3 hours. Students must bring a pen and pencil and a
photocopy of a picture ID with birth date.
