Our Census area serves 31 school districts with a total population of 325,950 potential adult learners.
Census data tells us that out of that number, 2,943 community members are identified as LEP, Limited English Proficiency (LEP) and can access our Adult Basic Education (ABE) English as a Second Language (ESL) programming almost any time of the year.
Last year, program year 2019-20, our Consortium served over 2000 students.
Our Consortium serves 31 school districts in Central Minnesota, St. Cloud included in that count. Some sites are combined at one school district’s location, meaning not all school districts have an active site. For instance, if one school district can serve as the headquarters/classroom like in the case of Cambridge (Cambridge, Isanti, and Princeton), then we work with that model.
