I'm done?!

As of yesterday, I'm officially done with the coursework for my preliminary special education credential. It's been a long, tough, tiring year. It seems like just yesterday I was so scared to become a student again.

I have learned so much valuable information. I have expanded my horizons and fell in love with a population of students than I never thought I would. I spent hours stressing over papers, learning how to write the perfect IEP, pondering my career choice because of all of the laws.

I met the greatest people. I have made life-long friendships. I finally found people who are just like me. Beautiful, talented, hilarious, amazing women who are going to make a huge difference in the lives of the students they teach. They are my rocks and they got me through some very difficult moments.

I was blessed with three amazing mentor teachers. They taught me more than I could ever imagine. I will forever be indebted to them. 

Now it's time to take the next step and apply for jobs. I can't wait to see what the future holds. But first, a big graduation party!

What is one of your biggest accomplishments?
