As a student at Acacia, I truly had a great and advantageous experience throughout my prior courses and continue to do so. Each course that was provided added to my awareness of the concepts that were addressed as well as acquiring competencies in areas that were a bit elusive. From each course’s readings and assignments to the diverse population in the virtual learning communities, all were valuable means that contributed to my overall learning experience. I am proud to say that years of teaching experience along with my studies in the Master’s program is what paved the way for my newly appointed position as an Elementary School Principal.
