You may begin to sign up for the current session's classes as soon as you receive the brochure or visit the website. We encourage you to sign up early so that a class may not be cancelled due to lack of registration. If space is still available in a class, registrations are taken up until 48 hours prior to the first day of class.

Pentucket Community Education courses are open to participants 14 years and older, unless otherwise noted. You are officially enrolled and your name is placed upon the class roster as soon as we receive your registration form and payment. We do not send written confirmations, but we will notify you if there is any problem with your registration or changes that you should know about.

Please note: we do not call or send confirmations. You are automatically signed up for the class of your choice. You’ll be notified only in the event your class if full or has been changed or canceled - No News is Good News!

Unless noted in the brochure, room assignments will be posted in the Pentucket High School Lobby on the first night of class.

All course times are listed on the brochure and website or you may call Dianne Ferrara 978-363-2280 ext 116.
