Woman seeks teaching degree amid job and funding hurdles
Lisa Jarosinski, a special education aide and mother of three, recalls easing a troubled student’s trust in Germantown. She aims to earn a degree to teach emotionally needy children, but must keep her $12,000 annual income and $1,000 monthly groceries support. She earned a Lavinia Eagle Scholarship and Hood College offer, yet money and time constraints push her to pursue multiple avenues without quitting her job. Four Montgomery County women received Lavinia Eagle scholarships, with local recipients Kelly Burns, Constance Hyrkas and Patricia Montali also noted for advancing in higher education.
