Minuteman Community Education offering summer programs

By Judy Bass

Summer is a great time for taking educational programs for fun, professional development, physical fitness, standardized test preparation, or to acquire skills that will enhance success in school. Minuteman Community Education, at Minuteman High School in Lexington, is the place to pursue those interests and many others during the upcoming weeks, thanks to a diverse slate of programs and activities designed for a wide range of ages.

“We offer a variety of programs from academics to enrichment, sports, art, technology and more,” said Minuteman Director of Community Education Jill Asser. “We are able to offer programs like cake decorating and woodworking that other places can’t offer. Wicked Cool Med School, Minecraft Mania, and more are on our website at www.MinutemanCE.org.”

All classes meet from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. or from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise specified.

Ms. Asser noted that registration is open until programs are full. Many are at or near capacity, so please don’t wait to sign up.

People can register online, by mail at Minuteman Community Education, 758 Marrett Road, Lexington, MA 02421, by phone (781-861-7150), by fax (781-863-1747), or in person between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm at the Community Education Office at Minuteman High School at the address above.
