Back To School

Well, after my week-long break (that was really no vacation at all), I head back to school tomorrow. Of course, I’m a prep maniac, which means I filled my gas tank this morning for the drive north. Over $50! As much as I love my school, I can’t believe how much the total expense has turned out to be. I have to find an more cost-effective solution for my education. Come June, I will have to have a more permanent living arrangement to carry me through to winter as I’ve got class four days a week during the summer and then full-time student teaching in the fall.

One way that people avoid the expense of traveling to school or having to be a resident is to attend classes online. I recently read about DirectoryofSchools.com in a web release which states that this “online education portal” represents over nine thousand online degree and professional certificate programs in over 1,355 schools.  Looking at the site, it clear they have a lot of options for just about every field, and I like that they are “committed to excellence” and strive to insure that their “partner schools are reputable” through an “in-house verification process which reviews accreditation or vocational industry standards relevant to each school.” If anyone is interested in pursuing one of the many online degrees that are available in our Information Age, Directory of Schools might be a great place to start your search.
