The DeSoto Literacy Council assists the residents of this and surrounding counties in Basic Adult Literacy and GED prep.
Services
The DeSoto County Literacy Council offers tutoring for adults who want to increase their basic reading skills. Every literacy student is given a diagnostic assessment in reading. This assessment provides valuable information regarding the student's strengths and needs in the four components of reading.
The DeSoto County Literacy Council also provides a General Educational Development (GED) program. The GED program serves students 18 years or older who have not received a high school diploma. DCLC provides all necessary materials to prepare students for the GED exam. We also offer computer classes to our students.
All services at DCLC are provided at no cost to our students.
