It's that time of the year, back to school time! This August though, my children aren't the only ones returning to school, that's right - this mom is too! I've been playing with the thought in my mind for sometime now and I finally just took the plunge and decided it was now or never!
As a single, working parent, there aren't many hours available for free time, it will take some work (and lots of planning) to adjust to my new school, work and parent/life schedule but I know I can do it!
After viewing what degrees my local college offered, I chose Associate of Arts in Teaching for grades 4-8 and Early Childhood through grade 12 Special Education. This degree plan will take two years to complete and then I will transfer to a university to obtain my Bachelors degree.
So, I've registered for my classes and my first day of school is at the end of August, I will attend full time, with classes all day Tuesday and Thursday.
I'm a little nervous but I could not be more excited to go back to school and become a Special Education Teacher. Wish me luck!
