“I can finally say “I did it.” I can finally say that I am a high school graduate. I can now move on to another chapter in my life. Because it is never too late for greatness. There is no age limit on success.” These are the words of Tabitha a 2019 graduate of Career Online High School through The Citrus County Library System.
This nationally accredited program allows adult students to earn an accredited high school diploma (not a GED) while gaining career skills from a selection of employment fields. The Citrus County Library System is currently seeking qualitied residents to enroll in this free program.
