Fast Route to Bachelor's

[smiley5044]

Hi! I am located in Arkansas and currently work as a paraprofessional in a school district. I want to teach in Elementary. Currently, I am open to getting my Bachelors degree in whatever I can quickly (it doesn't have to be elementary education or early childhood development) and then going into an Alternative Pathway to Licensure (like ArPep). I prefer Open book, open note courses like Sophia for obvious reasons (non proctored, work at your own pace) but I am flexible. Math/Science are not my strong suits.

I really excel around child development and loved that for my 2 year Montessori certification program. I love being with children and learning about them. I have leaned into WGU for the competency-based program but am not sure about it.
