Personally, I would do the GED and enroll in college. That would look better than just a high school diploma, plus you can get some college under your belt in the same amount of time.

For a good discussion of your options, check with your local Adult Education program. Almost all local school districts have both diploma and G.E.D. programs available through Adult Ed. If you're over 18, good luck on getting back into a comprehensive or even continuation high school.

I live in the 909 as well. Here's where I went to get my GED. It's equivalent to a high school diploma. I make a descent pay and make as much as high school grads at my job.

Well it's a school specifically for people looking to get a GED or finish their high school credits for a diploma. They have a graduation and everything there if it matters. I'm sure there's a school like that in your area just look around or go to your old high school see if they can help.
