LACONIA — Free Basic Math, Reading, and GED Preparation classes are being offered through the Adult Education program from 6 — 8:30 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings.

Classes are individualized with each student progressing at his or her own pace. No tests are given and, according to Program Director Peggy Selig, "there is no fear of failing."
