Do I employ someone or close my business to go back to school?

My name is Beth. I am single. I own a cyber cafe, from which I earn at least Sh1,000 on less busy days. The most I have ever earned in a day is Sh8,000. This is usually during the back-to-school season. I would like to go back to school myself and pursue a course in social work. Currently, I have Sh80,000 saved in Money Market Find (MMF). I have been depositing Sh5,000 every month. I also have a Sacco account, which has Sh30,000. I rarely deposit in this account.

My budget is as follows: Business rent: Sh8,000, Wi-Fi Sh2,800, stock: Sh6,000, electricity: Sh1,800. My house rent, food, electricity, and phone expenses are around Sh15,000.
