Sandra's Story
Life
I got married after Junior Year. I had two children and a divorce by the time I was 21. I struggled with low paying jobs until the children were older. Then, I went back to school and became a nurse. My children are grown now and I have 6 grandchildren. I love being a nurse, but my passion is working with the Girl Scouts with 5 of my grandchildren.
School
My Junior Year was awesome because everything came together for me. I was used to studying, got good grades, and had good friends. My favorite teachers were the librarian and my history teachers.

College
I loved working with the patients. We had a lot of clinical time. I loved Dr. Sturgis' history class, my first love. I still love what I am doing. Nursing is awesome! I haven't moved into an administration position, though I have been offered several, because I love working with the patients.
Workplace
My first job was waiting tables and I eventually got pretty good at it. I worked as a waitress and supported my family until I went back to school. I am working my dream job. I set my schedule the way I want it and work with a great group of people. I love taking care of patients. I tried teaching for a while and went back to nursing because that is what I really loved.
