Welcome to Life Skills of Dayton! We're here to help you earn your high school diploma.
We are located next to Donato's on North Main St., with plenty of parking in our own parking lot.
More than 300 students have earned their high school diploma at Dayton Life Skills so far. Our graduates work at Lowe's, Good Samaritan Hospital, local area restaurants, Easter Seals, Miami Valley Youth Works and more. We have students who have graduated from Sinclair Community College. One received his degree in Pharmacy Tech and is currently employed at a local pharmacy. Another is working with Dayton Area School of Medical Massage. Over 50% of our students go on to college.
Our staff partners with several area agencies to bring resources to the students. Our center partnered with local organizations to sponsor a summer kickoff talent show to stop violence in Dayton. Our students have also raised money for the Ronald McDonald House and have held canned food drives for local food pantries. Our staff has partnered with the Vineyard, a local church that is dedicated to servicing the local community through education and increasing vocational opportunities.
