How is GOAL Instruction Different?


GOAL is personal and flexible.  A variety of convenient class formats are provided, including lab, interactive television, online and traditional classroom.  With flexible scheduling and individually paced instruction, you can start at any time during the year and complete when your goal is met.  Classes are offered at varying hours--days and evenings--for your convenience.

Classes are: 
  • Offered on a full-time, year-round basis
  • Located throughout the district--in Appleton, Chilton, Clintonville, Menasha, New London, Oshkosh, Waupaca, and Wautoma as well as several other sites
  • Offered at no cost after a one-time assessment fee
