Irony

One thing I have found over the past few years is that the education field doesn't actually want you to be all that educated. In fact, there IS such a thing as being too educated to teach our youth. God forbid we give our students the best that we can offer, instead its the best we can afford. And what can our lovely government afford? A Bachelors degree with no experience.

I have been told time and time again to wait for my Masters. But isn't that a funny thought? How I need to put my own education on educating my students on hold because I can price myself out of their ballpark. It's a crazy thought. To think that our children aren't worth more to us. That a good teacher can become too high of a dollar sign.

I would love to learn all that I can while I can about the students I have in my classroom. I want to do everything in my power to give them the right kind of education. Yet I am told not to. I am told to wait. I am told that the more I do the more it could hurt me. What a crazy idea to have.
