Prior to any classes and/or testing, the student must take the GED Authorization Packet to the GED preparation/testing site. For information about GED classes and testing please contact your local community college. A student remains registered with LBL as a homeschool student until our office receives a copy of the student’s GED certificate or until the student is 18 years old.
Cost for Courses: See LBCC. No fees at LBL. Parents/guardians are responsible for all costs associated with GED testing and preparation.
