At 15, Montreace Fields had her first child and thought her high school dreams were over—until she earned a diploma from a private school. After 10 years as a nursing assistant, she hit a wall when her diploma wasn’t accepted for nurse practitioner training because the school lacked accreditation. Undeterred, she returned to school and this past Thursday, at Pinellas County Schools’ annual graduation ceremony, walked across the stage alongside hundreds of students aged 16 to 61—proof that it’s never too late to earn your degree. Montreace is now setting her sights on a bachelor’s degree this fall, one step closer to becoming a nurse practitioner.
