 As an adult, finding time to handle daily responsibilities is difficult enough without having to also find time to pursue educational goals. I was recently encouraged to continue my education because of one of our students who had shown great courage and determination to pursue her education.
Dianna Sanders has faced quite a few challenges and remains focused on her and her children’s education. Dianna was forced to leave high school at age seventeen to give birth to her first child. Even though parenthood raised its on set of challenges, it would pale in comparison to what was coming. At eighteen, Dianna was involved in an auto accident that left her hospitalized for 8 months. Doctors had told her she would never be able to walk again. Dianna wouldn’t let that stop her, so she began classes at Greater Columbus Learning Center in order to achieve her GED. Over the next few months, not only did she receive her GED, she also began walking. |
