My road to education may be very different from others. My first career choice and Bachelor's degree is in Business Marketing. After having kids and being blessed to stay home with them for several years, I decided to go back to school for education. I knew once I made this decision that this was what I was meant to do, it just took me longer to figure this out. I have now been teaching for 8 years, after being a paraprofessional for 4 years. I taught 5th grade for 1 year and have been lucky enough to stay in 3rd grade for the past 7 years.
