   The WIOA program at my school is on individual basis so you never know. It don't hurt to try. The worse they can do is say no lol

   Do you have programs at your school to help with daycare? I would ask financial aid or ask DFACS office if you can qualify for government daycare assistance. I don't know if this was what you were looking for, but I hope it helps.

   Thank you. Sorry for the late response, summer semester is sink or swim. UPDATE: I happened to stumble upon dinosaur party supplies at 5 bel°w. I was happy because he is obsessed with T-Rex and Triceratops. I used a gift card from Amazon to order ...

6. Confuse about my future

   KThurmond replied to mariepetel's topic in General Students

   Your welcome. Honestly, I have no idea. All I know is when a student isn't successful they have to email the program director. I think they just wait until the next class is offered and retake the class they failed and continue on. Each school is dif...

7. Confuse about my future

   KThurmond replied to mariepetel's topic in General Students

   What is the school's re entry policy? Most schools give students two attempts in the nursing program. Do you have counseling services at your school? It might help to talk to a therapist before making a decision. S/he can help you sort through your f...

8. Favouritism in nursing school!

   KThurmond replied to Greeneyednurse1228's topic in General Students

   I understand that you are dissapointed but don't do anything irritational. The important thing is that you got pinned. There are plenty of people who would kill to get into nursing school and even more to finish and get pinned. It sucks to work hard ...

9. Nursing school and parenting

   KThurmond replied to KThurmond's topic in General Students

   Thank you. I appreciate your response. I will try to bake a cake with him. I tried baking cookies a few months ago and he lost interest pretty quick. His daycare said I can bring in cupcakes for the kids to eat that day as snack. I'm thinking about g...

11. Nursing school and parenting

    KThurmond replied to KThurmond's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I appreciate your response and advice. I'm thinking about taking something into daycare on his birthday (on a Wednesday while we have class) and then going to the Zoo or something similar on the weekend. I have a bad habit of spoiling him ...

    KThurmond posted a topic in General Students

    Hey guys, I'm not working during this program and using assistance from WIOA. My son's birthday is coming up and even though I know this is only temporary, it makes me feel bad that I don't have a lot of money to do something big for his 3rd birthda...

13. Medical Assistant vent

    KThurmond replied to KThurmond's topic in General Students

    I feel bad for posting this now because it was rude some of the things I said and how it came off. I was just sooo frustrated and venting. The worst part was I felt like if I told an instructor or anything I was looking kinda like a baby and unprofe...

14. Medical Assistant vent

    KThurmond replied to KThurmond's topic in General Students

    Like I said I'm sorry if I offended anybody. I was just venting, there is only 1 medical assistant who is open to a student and the others feel like I slow them down. I'm proud of how far I've come and I wish they would let me do more. I've given onl...

15. Medical Assistant vent

    KThurmond replied to KThurmond's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry I came off as a jerk, I don't think I'm better than anybody, I was just really frustrated. It's frustrating being taught all these things and all they let me do is take their patient's vital signs. One patient needed an IV put in and they ...
