Well, it is official, I am now a student again. It has been a very difficult and overwhelming decision to make, but I am going back to school to get my endorsement in school counseling. Since I already have my master's in social work all that is required is that I take 7 courses and then do a practicum experience to receive my endorsement. I shouldn't say, "ALL that is required," because I feel like it is going to be a major undertaking having two kids, a husband, and a home since getting my MSW.
I decided to go back to school not because I don't like my job, I just want to be more of a part of the interventions that I am always suggesting to staff in the schools I serve as a school social worker. I want to be able to get to know kids a little better and work more with them. I am hoping that I will get to work with middle or high school students at some point. It will take me two years to get through these courses.
Anyway, I just thought I would share something about my life for once...plus it is a good excuse for the lack of posts lately (and probably in the future!:).
