PGAE’s Independence Pathway Program, a free day program at the Pacific Grove Adult School, serves neurodiverse adults and adults with mild/moderate intellectual or developmental disabilities who are at least 18 years of age and can independently handle all activities of daily living.
The program will maintain a staffing ratio of 6 students to 1 staff (6:1).
Students will be recruited from PGUSD’s Transitions Program; other LEA partners such as MPUSD, CUSD, and Monterey Peninsula College; WIOA partners like the Department of Rehabilitation and the Workforce Development Board of Monterey County; and other community partners.
Without Walls is a Community Based Day Program for adults with developmental disabilities. A joint program of Pacific Grove Adult School and the Gateway Center of Monterey County, it serves people from the greater Monterey Peninsula – Salinas area.
Using Person Centered Practices, we support the preferences, desires, and goals of each individual in the areas of vocation/volunteering, education, personal development, socialization and recreation. To achieve these ends, our daily focus is on:
  • Community Integration
  • Relationship Building
  • Skill Development
  • Hands-On Training

The Pacific Grove Adult Education Co-op Preschool operates as part of the school’s Parent Education Program. This is a parent education preschool program for children ages three years through kindergarten entry. Our program is designed to create an environment that provides optimum opportunity for growth for both parent and child. Physical, emotional and social skills are developed through developmentally appropriate activities in art, music, science and play. Emphasis is on the development of the whole child. It is our goal to acknowledge each child where he or she is upon entering preschool and taking them as far as they can go. It is also paramount that children leave preschool feeling confident, capable and knowing that school is a nice place to be – a place where they will be safe, valued and successful.
