Penn Trafford Adult Education offers classes for most every interest (fitness, craft, life skills and special interest classes.)
PTAE offers something for most every interest, with about 90 classes offered per year. They offer fitness classes like aerobics, swimming, water aerobics, and yoga. They offer craft classes like painting, floral arranging, quilting, and stained glass. They offer life skills classes such as finances, stress management, college planning, and computers. And, they offer special interest classes such as cooking, ballroom dance, golf, antiques, and vacation get-aways.
While the favorite classes are held each session, new classes are always being added! Members of the committee draw upon their own assortment of interests and those of neighbors and friends to find instructors and come up with new and exciting class offerings.
Classes are scheduled in three sessions -- fall, winter, and spring. Both residents and non-residents of the school district are welcome to register for classes.
Fall class brochures are available in August; spring is available in February.The winter class brochure is handed out to students during a take-home Tuesday in November. Class brochures can also be picked up at the Penn Area or Trafford library, the Harrison City or Trafford post office, and S&T Bank on Route 130. Current classes are also listed on the web site www.ptae.org.
