MCC Express Site Opens In Southeast Omaha

Metropolitan Community College has opened its MCC Express site in southeastern Omaha, giving students in the area a "mini-campus" with resources close by.

The site at 24th and Vinton offers four different kinds of services, including adult education classes like basic literacy, GED preparation and English-as-a-second-language classes. It also offers a computer lab and will offer some credit classes in the near future.

"If you need to finish your GED it's set up to do that where it’s actually split up the curriculum when you can just have a subject specific you can take it so if you only need math or writing you can take those classes and get done,” said Metro’s Patrick Boyle.

MCC Express will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. It will be open from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sundays.
