Congratulations to Catherine McLaurin on earning her High School Equivalency diploma through Co-Lin Adult Education!

Catherine returned to school with a goal bigger than herself, she wanted to prove that she could complete the first step toward a better future and pursue a career in the medical field, possibly as an LPN.

Throughout her journey, the Second Chance Mississippi Scholarship Program helped ease the financial burden of testing, allowing her to focus on reaching her goals instead of worrying about costs.

Like many adult learners, Catherine faced challenges while adjusting to learning again and understanding the lessons. But through patience, persistence, and hard work, she overcame those obstacles and successfully completed her HSE diploma.

Now, Catherine plans to continue her education in college and further her career in a medical technology field.

Her advice to others considering returning to school:
"Never give up, be patient with yourself, and go for what you want to do in life."

We are so proud of you, Catherine, and cannot wait to see all that your future holds!

✨ Graduate Spotlight: Sharmaine Jackson ✨

Today we are celebrating a powerful story of perseverance, faith, and determination. Congratulations to Sharmaine Jackson on earning her High School Equivalency!

Sharmaine’s journey wasn’t easy. She shared that she had been struggling for a long time, even trying multiple times before, but often felt like giving up. This time, she didn’t quit and that made all the difference.

When asked about the support she received, Sharmaine said Second Chance funding was “a true blessing.”

Through every challenge, her faith carried her forward:
“God has really showed up and showed out for me. I give Him all the praise.”

Now, with her diploma in hand, Sharmaine is looking ahead with purpose. She plans to attend college and is motivated by one powerful goal to build a better future for her children.

Her advice to others thinking about coming back to school:
“Keep God first and foremost, and keep your eye on the prize.”

Sharmaine, your story is inspiring, your strength is undeniable, and your future is bright.
We are so proud of you!

Help us congratulate Sharmaine in the comments!

✨ Graduate Spotlight: Graciela Gama ✨

Today we are proud to celebrate Graciela Gama and her incredible journey to earning her High School Equivalency! We asked her a few questions and this is what she had to say!

🎓 Q: What made you decide to return to school?
A: “Myself. I wanted better—I needed better for me. Also, my babies.”

🎓 Q: How did Second Chance funding help you?
A: “Without Second Chance, I wouldn’t have had the motivation to do better.”

🎓 Q: What challenges did you face, and how did you overcome them?
A: “In life and in the program… it was all a struggle. My teachers never gave up on me, so I didn’t give up either.”

🎓 Q: What are your plans now?
A: “A better job—and college!”

🎓 Q: What advice would you give others?
A: “Do it for YOU! Do not - and I mean DO NOT - give up. If you fail, keep going. Keep pushing. There really is light at the end of the tunnel.”

We are so proud of you, Graciela! Your strength and determination are an inspiration to us all.

It was a great day at the Mississippi Capitol as state staff, program directors, advocates, students, and educators from across Mississippi came together to highlight the life-changing work taking place in adult education programs statewide.

The day also served as an opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to the Mississippi Legislature for their continued support and commitment to these important programs.

Leaders from our Adult Education Program were in attendance. We are thankful for their continued dedication to our staff, students, and program!
