May I ask you, BlowingBubbles, are you attending a private or public program?

I think that there is a part time program at Hawthorne High; ROP Adult school. =+) That is the only part time program I know of.

Muchas gracias for your reply..... I will not work during school; and I will investigate ROP/Adult school further.....:nuke:

:uhoh21: hello there! i have wanted to become a nurse for the last 7 years. i have made the decision to go to school, and i am very excited about having the opportunity to realize this dream. but i want to do it right. i am hoping to get some sound advice regarding where and how to begin my nursing education. i think my goal is to earn my lvn, and then go back to school to get my rn, but i am really confused how to go about doing this. i have gotten a lot of different advice regarding this. here are some examples: 1) get your lvn from an rop/adult school, start working, and the facility you work for will offer you some kind of tuition reimbursement so that you can get your asn. 2) take out student loans, go to an accredited private school for 39 months, and graduate with your bsn. (a hospital will hire you because you have a bsn, and you won't have to go through the whole "lottery" system that you have to do at a community college.). 3) get your cna, and work at least one shift a week while you are going to school for lvn. (that way, you will get a job upon graduation). 4) volunteer 2 shifts a week at a hospital while going to get your lvn, to increase your chances of workig in a hospital setting upon graduation. my head is spinning, lol!! seriously!! i know all of these people who have given me advice mean well, but which one is giving me the best advice? please help me:heartbeat thank you!
