What is the reasoning behind advancing in one’s education even further than a bachelor’s degree? Most people would say it is to further increase one’s knowledge of a topic or subject matter they are naturally good at or find interesting. Until now, Dr. Marsh and Dr. Haak have been the only teachers at Westminster Christian High School with a Doctoral degree. That changed a few weeks ago. Mrs. Bristol, Westminster’s art history, drawing, painting, ceramics, and photography teacher obtained her Ed.D at Argosy University in education instructional leadership.
Because of this accomplishment she has now obtained three degrees: a bachelors degree in Fine Arts through Judson University, a masters degree in Art Education (with teaching credentials) through NIU, and now her doctoral degree in Education Instructional Leadership. After the rigorous amount of work, it has taken her two years to do her Ed.D courses while it took about a year to have her dissertation (subject thesis) written and processed. While it was hard work, she has furthered her knowledge in the education field. In turn, this not only benefits her reasoning, decision making, and teaching, but it benefits the students as a whole. Mrs. Bristol would like to thank Dr. Marsh for helping and aiding her while verifying her coding throughout her research.
awesome!!!
