Profile Information
- About me:
- I am a general education kindergarten teacher in an elementary school in South San Francisco, California. I have been a special education teacher in special day class for students with communcations disorder .
I have an 18 year old son who graduated this June, 08.
My email is b.oren@att.net
- My child's FIRST name only (No Last Names Please!):
- elizabeth
- My son/daughter is:
- Enlisted
- I was the proudest of my child when:
- she gained school, work and life experience between ages 18 and 20 and decided on a long range plan for herself and joined the Navy to help her reach those goals. several years before she enlisted, she was enrolled in a Navy Sea Cadet program during her high school years. I think she was influenced by Major Cook, a marine, who was so supportive of her efforts as a cadet. This was like an NROTC program but not quite so formal. Elizabeth left boot camp as an E3. She was given credit for her active participation given in the Navy Sea Cadet program.
- When my son/daughter first spoke about joining the service I:
- Was proud, Encouraged him/her
- As a new Navy mom, the most important thing I learned was:
- give her room to grow up and make her own sound and responsible decisions.
- My son/daughter is currently in the service or retired, and now I believe:
- This was the best decision he/she could have made

You have no sun??? We are cooking on this side! 98-100 degrees, depending on how far you are from the Bay...
I think the $25 is for visiting ships, but not sure... When you find out will you tell me?
Congratulations on your daughter's PIR!!!
Hooray !!!!
Thank you so much for the information. It is detailed and I will cut and paste it for printing later.
Congratulations !
Frankly, all he has to do is study hard and pass the Navy classes, do well in his assigned work, and in due season request permission to attend college classes. The Navy College office or his Education Officer will provide any specific direction to get it done. Steer him that way.
Greetings, the Navy College program is excellent and you can check under their "rating roadmaps" page to see the "recommended" credits for specific ratings/paygrades and courses. It's up to the specific educational institution to determine what credit to accept, and fees, etc. Hope this helps.
Happy 4th of July! Kevin

Hi Sheila, at some point after his schooling the courses get added to his "smart transcript" which is his offical Navy recommendation of college credit. Once he is in a situation to actually apply to an educational program and take classes (NOT during any official Navy schooling, but usually once they are settled in their "gaining command" and actually working in their assigned trade) the college will assess and award his credits.
