Germanna Community College Middle College classes will resume on Fridays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., beginning this Friday, Sept. 23, at Fredericksburg Area Campus Building Workforce and Technology Building (FAC 2), in room 232 until further notice.
Classes had been suspended due to earthquake damage to another building on the Fredericksburg Campus.
This is a short-term solution, according to GCC Middle College Director Carolyn Bynum, until a new location is established.
College officials continue to work on securing that location.
"In the interim, holding an all-day class on Fridays is a way to keep our current students engaged in their coursework and to keep them on track towards their goals," Bynum said. "We have been working on identifying online resources to supplement the in-class instruction so that even while students are away from campus they can continue to work on GED prep, career exploration and college coursework.
"The students are excited to get back to class after over a month-long hiatus," Bynum said.
Most other students returned on Sept. 6.
"They have been very patient through this whole process, but they're ready to get back on track," Bynum said.
Middle College help prepare students to get their GEDs and enter Germanna or another college's degree program.
