Question 131
Dear Preschool
Teacher,
I am a freshman at Nassau Community College
and I was wondering what schools you went to, to get to the job that
you have today.

Dear Curious about College,
I graduated from Whittier College
in Whittier, CA and did my 5th year, emphasis in Early Childhood
Education, at Cal State University, Fullerton in CA. This is
more than is required for my current position in preschool.

Dear Curious about College,
Good question. I went to
Goshen College in Goshen, Indiana. It is a 4-year liberal arts
college. I have a B.A. Degree in Early Childhood Education.
I then took some graduate classes at Georgia State University to get a
Preschool Special Education Endorsement. Now I teach preschool
special education in a public school in Metro Atlanta.

Dear Curious about College,
I went to Kent State University.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Individual and Family Development with
the major emphasis on Child Care. What it includes is a lot of
consumer studies, child, adolescent, and family dynamics. I have
taken nutrition , child development, early childhood education and the
usual basic classes. According to what our Head Start requires
though, I am over-qualified. An Associate Degree is really all
that is needed, but I love teaching!

Dear Curious about College,
I myself starting taking Early Childhood
classes in Florida at a technical school. I decided to move back to Massachusetts
where I continued my education at the local community college. This
college has a two year AS degree program for Early Childhood but it
has taken me 4 years to complete it as I was taking night classes. I
am finally going to graduate this semester after I complete the
Student Teaching class.
