#97 - Head Back to School with Continuing Education

With Commack's Continuing Education series, going back to school can be surprisingly fun.

The Spring session begins in early March, so there's still time to register, although you should act quick before classes fill up.

For the artist in you, the district offers introductory classes in knitting, oil painting, pencil drawing and pottery, among others. If you're more interested in the culinary arts, you can explore courses in cake decorating, international cuisine, and even 30-minute meals.

Academic courses run the gamut, with several language classes being offered including Mandarin Chinese, and a slew of others focus on technology topics such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel.

For a more hands-on experience, registrants can participate in Zumba, Yoga, Reiki, and performing arts classes. A boating class is also on the roster.

Prices are reasonable, with most classes hovering around $50. A few cheaper classes cost around $30, most classes are offered to senior citizens at a significantly discounted rate. Out-of-district registrants are welcome to join, but have to pay an additional fee.

Classes take place in the various schools within the district.
