Activities abound during the Saturday sessions of CLEAR (College Learning Experiences, Activities and Resources). It’s a full day of learning and fun.

The CLEAR Saturday program offers a variety of classes each semester ranging from practical living skills and physical conditioning to art and music. Saturdays provide students the opportunity to socialize, meet new friends and participate in life-enriching education. 

Two seven-week sessions of classes are offered on Saturdays each spring and fall semester. Most Saturday classes have a fee of $5. Fees for Saturday must be paid via cash, check or money order. 

Registration for Saturdays is easy!  If you have attended CLEAR classes before, simply return the registration form with your payment. All students must meet attendance criteria. Students new to the program must set up an appointment for a new student interview.  For an interview, contact the Community Programs Manager, Catie Marx, at cmarx@jccc.edu or 913-469-7890.
