SESSION RECAP: A STORY TO SHOW DIVERSITY
Ginny is our eighth and last spouse in “A Story to Show Diversity” focus, where I show the diversity of military spouses. Her story of her career as a "pre-k sped teacher, teaching 4-5 year olds in an inclusion class" started when she was taking online college classes. She found out she was pregnant and her and husband decided to stay in the Army longer. That decision led them to Fort Moore where she found a paraprofessional position at a local school after graduating. After some time "a sped position opened up during the school year and [she] decided to try it. [She] took [her] sped GACE recently and passed so [she is] now a SPED certified teacher." Ginny is so excited about what the future holds for her career and her family.
