Worth County GED Graduates

 

Moultrie Technical College’s Adult Education program celebrated its winter and spring quarter graduating classes of 2010 at a semi-annual Commencement ceremony held Thursday, June 17, at the MTC Tifton Campus.  The college recognized more than 170 GED program graduates from the college's four-county service area of Colquitt, Tift, Turner and Worth.  Many of those GED graduates were from the college’s Sylvester-Worth County Adult Literacy Center in downtown Sylvester.  Former MTC GED graduate and 2001 State of Georgia EAGLE (Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literacy Education) winner Sophia Johnson of Tifton, who obtained her GED credentials at age 56, addressed the graduating class with an inspiring message. Pictured, left to right, are MTC Adult Education instructor Mattie Grant, GED graduates Micah Moore and Cheri Garrett, MTC Adult Education instructor Kim Oliver, graduates Rebecca Harnage, Aron McCaffity, Dexter Armstrong, Amanda Griffin, Gavin Perry, Garrett Ryan and Deshawn Powell, with MTC Executive Director of Adult Education Liz Keith.
