I am a better teacher because I am a parent, and a better parent because I am a teacher.
I’m fortunate that I found a program that broke down those barriers to entry. I’m now earning my teaching credential through a low-cost program that allows me to work full-time in a classroom; I will graduate debt-free.
With a national teacher shortage looming, it’s time to support students by creating more programs like mine and easier pathways into the classroom for parents.
