About
Five Town CSD Adult & Community Education is an award-winning program. On September 15, 2019, we celebrated our 50th year of offering both enrichment and workforce classes to the community! Over 2,000 people each year participate in some way in our program, whether it is taking a class or teaching one. Sign up to take a class, offer to teach one, or even just provide us with your thoughts and ideas. We are always looking for ways to improve our already great program. Remember it doesn’t matter where you live, you can participate in our adult education program.
In any economy, Adult Education courses are great choices because they are local, affordable, and are designed to fit within your schedule.
Our offices and most of our classes are located at Camden Hills Regional High School on Route 90. Look for the granite Camden Hills Regional High School sign.
