I have certification in Elementary Ed. In fact, that's my Master's
Degree....BUT, if I went into that now, I'd be un-tenured, and it would be
just like starting all over again. I couldn't take that risk, although
sometimes it seems kind interesting....

Subject: [MK8]To be a "regular" classroom teacher? Hmmm.
I'm going to do it.
This summer I am going to Praxis into Early Childhood Ed.
It's really about opening possibilities for me next year. I get the
distinct impression (and have scheduling proof) that I will probably be
bumped
to part time next year as will all the specials. I could be wrong, but it
looks VERY much like that.
So, I'm hoping that with additional certification it may open up positions
closer to home. My husband thinks its a great idea. He thinks that
teaching music the way I do (he implies I'm a little detailed oriented and
anal
retentive here...*giggle*) that a classroom position may mean less work
outside of work. I guess we'll see what happens.
Do any of you have multiple certifications? What are your thoughts?
Anyone else considering doing something like this to be more marketable if
the
occasion arises?
