Inside Avery‑Mitchell and Mountain View Correctional Institutions, students gather each week to improve their reading, writing, and math skills through Mayland Community College’s correctional education programs.
For many participants, it is the first time they have experienced success in a classroom. Instructors provide lessons in literacy, numeracy, employability, and decision‑making skills.
Educators say the most rewarding moments come when students experience academic breakthroughs and begin to believe in their potential.
These programs help students build confidence, prepare for future opportunities, and create positive change in their lives.
