August 9th update-  
Hi Students!   Some of you have asked me about purchasing study guides for the TEAS test.   In class, we will be using lots of different materials to prepare for the TEAS and you actually are NOT REQUIRED to purchase any study guide.  There are many study guides out there and none of them are perfect.  However, I do have a set in the classroom of what I think is one of the best because it is written by the ATI testing service itself.  ATI testing service wrote the TEAS, and therefore, I think that their study guide matches up best with the actual test.  However, their newest version of the study guide is very expensive, and I don't recommend it.   I will discuss this at length at orientation... for now, I would recommend that you hold off on purchasing any study guide unless you find an inexpensive, used copy online.  Remember, you do not NEED to purchase a study guide to be in my class.

August 5, 2016   For those of you who need to adjust a work schedule, I want to let you know that the preLPN class this fall will be held on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 9am-12pm.  At orientation, we will talk about possible ways we can accomodate your schedule if you cannot attend all three days because of work.  Feel free to email me or call me if you have an issue you'd like to discuss.
