“School psychology interests me because I feel like I always saw myself working in education, but I also saw myself working with community agencies, Students, 老师, 和管理. I get to do all of that as a school psychologist. The hands-on experience has been the most valuable. The program sets a foundation as far as being in the classroom with face-to-face interaction with the professors. But then they also get you out into the school system. You’re getting firsthand experience.”
