- Connor Hill, MS ’22I chose grad school, as it was the right thing to do for my career, where I’m able
to take skills and techniques learned in class, and apply them directly into my class
the very next day. In class, I’m able to connect with a wide variety of CT Physical
Education teachers who are constantly providing me with good ideas, and are a resource
for me when beginning units that are new to my curriculum. I will tell any teacher
thinking about their decision about when to go to grad school to go as soon as possible,
because the things you learn in this program helps you tremendously at the critical
“beginning years of your career” time frame.
