  • Biology (6-12)
  • Economics (6-12)
  • Geography (6-12)
  • Middle Grades (4-8)
  • Middle Grades Social Science (4-8)
  • Political Science (6-12)
  • Special Education General Curriculum Consultative (P-12)
  • Special Education Language Arts Cognitive Level (P-8)
  • Special Education Math Cognitive Level (P-8)
  • Special Education Reading Cognitive Level (P-8)
  • Special Education Science Cognitive Level (P-8)
  • Special Education Social Science Cognitive Level (P-8)

I typed that almost off the new certificate I received in the mail, and it’s almost half a page long on there.  I’m definitely proud and excited, and hopeful that all these certifications will make me look attractive and versatile as I continue to search for a teaching job.

The next GACE is after the holidays, and I’ve got a couple of weeks to determine what I’ll be taking.  Might be history, might be science, might be math!  We’ll just have to see.
