Objective My career objective is to become an elementary/special education teacher. Hopefully anywhere from kindergarten through third grade. However, I will be happy with any grade level. I will be an asset to any school that I will work for until that objective is met. However, I do not think that my job will ever be done because I want to make a difference in children’s lives.
