I started Fundamentals of Writing I. I hope to improve my writing to find a good job and go to a short-time college to refresh my professional skills and give a better life for my family. Jairo De la Cruz,
Adult School Student

Writing Academy

The new PAAS Writing Academy includes a series of core classes (Fundamentals of Writing) designed to address the basic writing needs of our students. Whether you need help writing clear sentences, coherent paragraphs or an eloquent essay, you will find a class that meets your needs. The classes are offered on the same day and time so you can move up or down a level if you feel a class is too hard or too easy for you. Each class can be repeated multiple times for additional practice opportunities. Students can earn Certificates of Achievement and Proficiency in the Fundamentals classes by completing in-class assessments at the end of the quarter.

Students who need more individual feedback and a guided and structured environment to complete their assignments can enroll in the Writing Lab that complements the Fundamentals classes.

Check back at the end of July for our new Fall classes! Fall registration will begin August 2nd.
