I was born in California , have visited San Francisco and other parts of California growing up. 🌞My partner and I currently live on the east coast and are wanting to move to California in a couple years ( 2-3) what city would you recommend that has these following things :

- semi affordable living
- Highly rated / great schools for teaching
- Beaches near by
- Walkable Paths
- Hiking and camping spots near by
- Easy commute to LA
- safe and convenient neighborhood to raise a family
- LGBTQ + Friendly
- Black/ POC community Friendly

Thank you ! 😊

Hi! I have a question for the Prek-3rd teachers in California, what did programs/ degree did you have to obtain in order to become a kindergarten teacher and teach in the state of California? I’m wanting to move back to California in a year or two , while also in the process of becoming a kindergarten teacher! I’m debating on taking my general education classes at a CC and then transferring to a university in Cali when I move. I’ve seen a some information about you needing to hold a multiple subject credential and that you don’t need another bachelors nor do you need a masters degree. Is this true?
Is this program the best program to start in California to become a kindergarten teacher? I’d love to hear your thoughts/ experiences if you have taken this approach to teaching elementary in California! Thank you !☺️
