Page 15: Become a Social Studies Middle or High School Teacher

As a middle and high school student, I loved history class. After graduating with a bachelor’s in History from Howard University, the Social Studies teaching program was an inevitable path for me.

LISTEN TO THEIR STORIES

During my 1st year of teaching, 100% of my scholars passed the CRCT -the highest scores in the region. I attribute this to my teacher preparation at Georgia State.

Listen to MIRACA’S STORY

When I originally applied to the program I was denied, but I knew I had something to offer students. I had a yearning to become a teacher and it would not die.

Listen to NICHOLAS’ STORY
