Stacie Bailey with Her Family
CSM Online Accounting Student
Charles County, Maryland
Stacie Bailey is busy. She is juggling work, family, church, sports, piano lessons, and yes, even college classes. While managing the busiest of schedules, Stacie is finding the time to take classes online at CSM and maintain a 4.0 average.
“I started my family at a young age,” said Stacie, “and both my husband and I made the decision to put off our educational goals to focus on our family. When I took my oldest son to CSM to register him for classes, I thought, ‘I can do this,’ and with the help and support of my family, I have.”
“I love taking my classes online. It gives me the flexibility and convenience of studying when I have the time. It’s the same quality instruction using the same curricula and learning outcomes, but just online.”
Both Stacie and her son, Christopher, 18, will be receiving their associate’s degrees in the spring of 2008. Daughter Danielle, 16, will also start attending classes at CSM this fall through CSM’s dual and concurrent enrollment options.
“CSM has really been there for us,” said Stacie.
