Meet Jaci Gibson! Jaci is the first student that will graduate with a degree in Mathematics but a concentration in Secondary Mathematics from UAM - University of Arkansas at Monticello! This degree first became active in January 2023 and was created to attack the problem in southeast Arkansas of having teachers in high school math classes that are not able to pass the Math subject area Praxis exam which is essential for licensure in the state of Arkansas. The math subject Praxis exam is not an easy exam as it requires knowledge and understanding of advanced mathematics such as Calculus, Probability, and Statistics. Because of this, there is a large math teacher shortage in the state, and many schools have had to hire either unlicensed teachers or teachers licensed to teach a subject other than mathematics. As our math department has faculty members who came from secondary education, they are very knowledgeable in the content and coursework necessary to pass an exam such as the math Praxis. We are so proud to announce that Jaci not only passed the math subject Praxis exam on her FIRST try but scored well above the necessary score required to pass! Jaci will now have her pick of math teaching jobs in the state! Congratulations Jaci!
