At fifty-five, she took a leap into the unknown: she became alternatively certified to teach high school science to pregnant and parenting teen girls in suburban Oklahoma.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArmed with subject expertise and life skills but zero classroom experience, Airhart expected to share knowledge and wisdom. Instead, she found herself schooled. Her students-often tired, absent, or juggling the demands of motherhood-challenged her to think beyond lesson plans. Science facts alone weren't enough; reaching them meant adapting to their lives, their interests, and sometimes, their babies' nap schedules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eSubject to Change\u003c\/em\u003e, Airhart shares her bumpy, funny, and eye-opening transformation from lab scientist to unconventional educator. From adapting creative experiments-like a DNA lab using liquor-store Everclear-to learning the power of humility, she discovers that teaching is less about curriculum and more about connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith humor, candor, and deep respect for her students, Airhart captures the messy beauty of a classroom where life experience is as valuable as any textbook. This is the story of how one woman's third career became her most meaningful-and how a group of young mothers taught her as much about resilience as she taught them about science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Janice Airhart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0976063921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780976063926\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Two Trails Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.50d","brand":"Janice Airhart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440563761407,"sku":"9780976063926","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a8025817-030a-4d66-bc9d-f195e2d52abe.jpg?v=1777183276","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/subject-to-change-janice-airhart-9780976063926","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
