Debbie's Story

Update: 4/12/11 Almost finished with my 2nd Masters Degree....this time in Internet Marketing. Hey, if this teaching "thing" doesn't work out I need a plan B! I miss teaching and hopefully will find myself back in a 4th grade classroom -- teaching. It's such a shame that California has had to lay-off so many teachers.....and too bad I left my tenured teaching position in San Jose to buy a house in the Central Valley...BIG MISTAKE! Only 1 year of teaching in this small town and I had no seniority. But who knew....I should have just braved the commute! As I approach 50 this year ....the best is yet to come?!!! Let's get on with it and find out! :D Received my Masters in Education Media Design & Technology from Full Sail University. I had a blast going to Florida for my graduation ceremony at the Hard Rock Cafe / Universal Studios. 3/13/2010: In a month and a half I will graduate with my Master's Degree. The educational system is still in the dumps, therefore I will pursue a teaching position in an e-learning environment or perhaps use my BS in Marketing with the skills I've learned in my Master's Degree to pursue a career in Social Network Marketing. It truly is sad to see the educational system falling into the abyss. Hopefully one day those at the top will see that they are not only hurting teachers by laying them off, but they ...Expand for more
are hurting the students education, which will in turn lead to further economic decline because the leaders of the future are not receiving a good education. UPDATE: Pursuing Master's Degree in Education Media Design and Technology at FullSail.com. Since moving district's this year and losing tenure, I find myself "pink-slipped" temporarily due to budget cuts. No worries though. Teacher's will need substitutes more and more due to an increase in responsibilities and class sizes. I'm focusing on becoming an Education Media Design Consultant and starting my own business. Teaching online is yet another possibility. The handsome boy in the "then" portion of my profile picture is my son, Brian. He's 18 years old and graduating high school this Friday. Brian is my youngest child so now that they have all left the nest... on to the next stage in life. Best wishes 5th Grade Teacher in Dos Palos, CA. Dos Palos is a small town in the San Juaquin Valley. Previously taught 4th Grade for 3 years, and 3rd Grade for the 2 years prior at Millbrook Elementary in the Evergreen School District in San Jose, CA. There I was the Webmaster for the school website and Technology Staff Developer.
