Now Certified in Middle Grades!
I am proud to announce that I received my new certificate from the Georgia Professional Standards Commission in the mail today. It lists my newly certified field of Middle Grades Social Sciences. I am so excited! I am hopeful that my new qualifications that allow me to teach essentially the second half of a student’s public school career will open up new job opportunities for me, and I am thrilled to have it.
That gives me five certifications total: Economics, Geography, and Political Science for high school students, Middle Grades Social Sciences for middle school students, and Special Education Consultative for all grades.
I am also happy to announce that I continue my perfect passing rate of GACE exams on the first try! I’m glad my efforts have been starting to pay off. I am currently pondering which certification to pursue next and look forward to sharing that information when I’ve made a decision.
