English
as a Second Language
Spring Valley United Methodist Church provides English as a
Second Language classes for adults. Instruction is free, and
free baby-sitting is provided, but each student is expected to
buy a book for $20. Classes are held at the church, which is
located near the intersection of Spring Valley Road and Coit
Road, between 6:30 and 8:00 PM on Wednesdays and Thursdays. NSC
supports recruitment of participants and is a source of
information on other ESL classes in the area, among them those
given by Richland College.
Job
Skills Training
NSC continues to work with Richland
College to provide area residents with information and
access to job skills training. Richland’s Skills Training
Center provides services including free skills training, childcare,
transportation, and job placement for area residents who meet
low-income guidelines, who are unemployed or under employed,
dislocated workers, or others with employment disadvantages.
In
addition, Richland provides area youth and young adults opportunities
to learn in a relaxed and enriching educational setting.
Parenting
Education
During NSC parenting education sessions there are programs
for all ages: infants and toddlers, pre-schoolers, school
aged children, and parenting sessions for parents. Dinner
and mini-sessions are offered. Kappa Delta Fund for Children
in Need co-sponsors the Family Nites in cooperation with Arapaho
United Methodist & Temple Shalom. No child may attend
without a parent or guardian. See What's
Going On for times and dates. All sessions are held at
7700 Spring Valley Road.
