People leave high school for a variety of reasons. However, in the vast majority of cases, adults soon discover that the reality of life without a high school diploma can be very challenging and full of dead ends and closed doors. The Merrill Area Public School District and Northcentral Technical College have combined programs to help students improve their academic skills so they can achieve their educational goals and get their lives back on track.
The Merrill Adult Diploma Academy (MADA) is a charter school that opened its doors in September 2007. MADA works with high school students who wish to earn their high school diplomas. In addition, MADA has partnered with NTC, as a Merrill-based learning center. Adult students are offered the opportunity to earn the General Eduacation Diploma (GED) or High School Equivalency Diploma (HSED). We also help adult students improve their basic skills in Reading, Writing, and Math. Basic Computer and Employability Skills classes are offered to the general public.
