RACHAEL FINE, M.Ed.
Elementary Education Licensure
Oakridge Elementary School
Arlington, VA Public Schools
“I loved the small class sizes and students-to-professor ratio. Listening to recent grads and current students speak at an open house was extremely influential. I was inspired by so many students eager to share their experiences. It made me realize that Marymount’s program was the place for me. After I applied, I was impressed with Marymount’s responsiveness. I applied in March, was accepted in April, and started classes in May. The staff was so helpful to make the program work with my schedule for the best and most convenient outcome for me. From student teaching and field experiences every semester, to creating educational opportunities for children in the community through the STEM-A organization, Marymount’s experiences allow students to take their studies to the next level. From the bottom of my heart, I am so proud to be a Marymount M.Ed. grad. Not only did I feel fully prepared to take on student-teaching, I was hired before I even graduated.”
