TAKE THE GED IN A WEEK IN NYC
By Profesor Martin Danenberg “El Quijote del GED”
My close GED associate Queen Makkada, a Title 1 Coordinator in Queens, but very well known in Brooklyn, too, called me at 10:30 P.M. last Thursday from the streets of Brooklyn to tell me she found a young woman who has been in four GED programs of New York City and who wants to do the GED. I spoke with this young woman that night and two more times after that. The woman told me today that she already got a date to take the GED in Harlem next Monday. Wow! Usually a test candidate has to wait months to take the test. Please put the word out that people may be able to take the test quickly now. If seats are available it can be done. Taking our youth from the streets into the GED Testing site will get them off the streets and into studying for higher education.
I called the Suffolk Community College Selden GED Test Center on behalf of a Salvadoran who only has to pass the math in Spanish. I was told that no person can take the test there in English before December and not before May 2009 in Spanish. The progress of all people without a high school diploma is being held back by lack of funds and GED testing sites. We can send people from Long Island into the city to be tested in English. Years ago people as far away as Suffolk County used to travel to New Jersey to take the GED quicker there. Give my information to someone that you know or love now and let us help people together.
CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION FAST. THE NEW HARLEM SITE ONLY TESTS IN ENGLISH. WE THANK QUEEN MAKKADA FOR TAKING THE GED CAMPAIGN INTO THE STREETS. WE WANT ALL OF OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS AND PEOPLE ASPIRING TO GAIN OUR VOTE AND CONFIDENCE TO DO THE SAME THINGS. IF OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THOSE RUNNING FOR OFFICE DO NOTHING, OUR YOUTH JUST STAY ON THE STREET AND MANY GET INTO TROUBLE.
