Trails Regional Library offers a program called Excel Adult High School designed to help busy adults who have aged out of the education system obtain their high school diploma online with the convenience of a self-paced schedule.

Residents of Johnson or Lafayette County ages 18 and older who are looking to advance their careers, prepare for workforce entry, or continue their education, can apply online for an Excel Adult High School scholarship through Trails Regional Library. There is no cost to students for the program, but enrollment is limited and requires a library card.

Trails Regional Library awards a scholarship, paid for by the Trails Regional Library Foundation, to a qualified adult learner on a first-come, first-served basis. Excel Adult High School is a great solution for those who may need extra academic assistance and flexibility. Once in the program, students are supported by instructors, success coaches, and tutors dedicated to helping them achieve their goals. The online curriculum is accessible 24/7, which is helpful to those balancing work and family obligations. Students are given up to 24 months to complete the program, but many finish sooner because previously earned high school, GED, or HiSet credits are accepted.
