My experience at Learn More,
I found out I could get my GED from a family friend a long time ago, maybe since I was in high school. I always had thought in the back of my mind but really never got to it due to life always moving so fast.
I graduated in Mexico, but I also wanted my high school equivalency here in the United States. After not going back to Mexico for two years, at the beginning of this 2025 I thought it was time to investigate and see what I needed to get what I wanted. Tired of always working factory or production lines is something I dont want to all my life and I knew it was time to get my GED.
First call I did, not going to like… I was nervous! Scared even! I didnt know if I still had it in me.
Cynthia welcomed me in so kindly and caring that the first time I came in I knew I could do it. Dani, Lucas, and Kendall also helped out so so much. Always being so caring and patient. Pushing me to do what they knew I could accomplish. My Tully made me remember why I liked math and all of them made me believe in myself when I didn’t. Tiffany’s reaction I would get every time after passing a test was priceless! I wouldnt change it for anything and its something I’ll remember for the rest of my life. The amount of support I got from LMC is honestly what motivated me even more of getting good passing scores. I know what I want for my future. I know that I can truly accomplish any thing I set for myself. I owe a giant thank you to each and every person that helped me get to where I am, and to where my next step is going to be. And it’s all thanks to you guys. Thank you Learn More Center, I couldn’t do it without you.
Love,
Ana Saucedo

We’re excited to spotlight Austin, one of our 2024 graduates who truly holds a special place in our hearts. Austin is a standout student in every sense. Known around the center for his sharp wit, a bit of snark, and his unforgettable attitude, he always keeps us on our toes – and, more importantly, makes us laugh. While his humor often brings a fun energy to class, it is his ability to connect with both his peers and instructors that truly stands out. Austin isn’t just a student – he is an energizing presence. His bond with the staff is strong, and he’s one of our many students who continues to visit us often, always with pride in his alumni status. His frequent visits remind us of the lasting impact our program has on students, and we couldn’t be prouder of him for continuing to represent the Center in such a positive light as he prepares for his military career. A highlight of Austin’s journey was his graduation speech. It was a moment we’ll never forget, as he shared his story and his goals. Earning his HSE was just one step toward his larger ambition of entering the military. We couldn’t be more proud to have supported him in achieving that milestone, and we’re thrilled to watch him chase his dreams. Austin’s blend of goofiness, drive, and humor made him a student we’ll always remember. As he moves forward in his career, we have no doubt he’ll continue to make us proud. Austin, we can’t wait to see where your journey takes you – and we’re so grateful to call you part of the Learn More Center’s alumni family!

In 2023, Indiana instated a “total transcript” option for certain applicable students. The requirements are firm, and students who are eligible for this total transcript option are able to essentially mix and match test options. Subject test scores from 2009 and forward are valid to be combined with GED or HiSET subject tests for those that were not completed or passed previously. This route, while great for some students, is not an easy route. For total transcript, students must have higher average test scores for each subject test. Jaiden, who began her journey with TASC a few years ago, returned in 2023 with the ability to go the total transcript route. She achieved this challenge and reached her goal.
Jaiden returned to school at the Learn More Center to further her education and to feel better about herself and her life. She wants to get a better paying job so she can best support her family and herself. Jaiden lived through some hard moments, and felt that she got to apoint where there wasn’t anything left of her for anyone to support. However, she’s in a better place in her life now. Jaiden has the family she’s always wanted and a much more rekindled relationship with her family. She feels she couldn’t ask for better support than she has now.
As we begin the new year, Jaiden is proud to be a 2023 graduate and we are so proud of her!
