I think about that when I think about going back to school to teach. How much will it cost me? How much will I make? If I stay in TX & open a one room schoolhouse, I don't need that piece of paper.

I go round and round on this one.

I'm trying to decide whether or not to have Emma do geometry. She want to go to - Grits - 4:52:51 PM on 07/09/2012 (19)

It's a prereq for most colleges and she may change her mind - Holly - 7:29:32 PM on 07/09/2012

I don't think she'll change her mind. And,honestly, I don't see her doing anything but a tech. school.... - Grits - 8:04:37 PM on 07/09/2012

Geometry is a pretty low level high school expectation though - Holly - 9:45:55 AM on 07/10/2012

I think Sherry is right. I personally don't know why she would need it, but I'm finding that my thoughts - cellomom - 6:12:39 PM on 07/09/2012

I don't know why she'd need it either. This highschool thing is new to me - Grits - 6:46:52 PM on 07/09/2012

Me neither. I'm praying my way through it. - cellomom - 7:21:45 PM on 07/09/2012

Oh yes! I agree! - Sherry (Bowlsby) - 11:49:14 PM on 07/09/2012

Have you looked into the schools she wants to attend? - Sherry (Bowlsby) - 6:02:56 PM on 07/09/2012

The one she wants to go to just requires a highschool diploma or GED. [NT] - Grits - 6:45:20 PM on 07/09/2012

Does your state require it for graduation? [NT] - Sherry (Bowlsby) - 11:51:52 PM on 07/09/2012

I have no idea, [NT] - Grits - 12:27:16 AM on 07/10/2012

The GED has geometry on it... - AEinMd - 11:28:18 PM on 07/09/2012

She had some basic geometry with A Beka, just no proofs. [NT] - Grits - 12:28:18 AM on 07/10/2012

She doesn't need proofs... - AEinMd - 1:17:18 AM on 07/10/2012

Yes, it was highschool. [NT] - Grits - 10:02:02 AM on 07/10/2012
