I really need to get my GED so I can better myself and find a better job for my kids and myself. Then I know that I’m making progress for myself.

Reason for Leaving School:  I left in 1999 after I had surgery. I didn’t go back.

Reason to Get a GED:  So I can better myself and my kids. I need to get what I lost, and I know that I can do better.

One Thing I Need for My Dreams:  Getting my GED.
