Objectives for the Future
You should be proud of yourself for intending to go graduate school. It's clear that it holds great significance for you and your identity. You should learn to be less biased when describing yourself and your skills in order to succeed in job interviews.
The final line is that you should cease expressing something in interviews if you notice it is offending others. It would be prudent to refrain from mentioning the OnStar system, which allows drivers to receive assistance in the event of a disaster, if you were selling Cadillacs and found that doing so was discouraging customers. You could go on and on about all the wonderful features of the Cadillac. Why bringing up the OnStar is offensive is anyone's guess. Perhaps this is due to the fact that no one wants to think about oneself in a disaster scenario. Similarly, your company may be afraid of the calamity that would ensue if they had to replace you due to the prospect of you earning a degree that would open doors to better positions. An advanced degree would benefit you and your employer in many different kinds of jobs. It appears like they aren't seeing it that way when it comes to your situation.
If going back to school won't get in the way of your work, your employers don't have to know.
Companies Who Aren't Seeking Ambition (Separate from the Job)
The point of going on an interview is not to demonstrate your drive and ambition to the potential employer. The point of going on an interview is to find out what the company is seeking and then demonstrate that you are a good fit. Employers typically seek out candidates that demonstrate a strong commitment to doing excellent work. The majority of employers value loyalty as an attribute. Employers don't actively seek for ambitious people; rather, ambition is a byproduct of the traits they value. Employers prefer workers who are self-motivated enough to get the job done, but not so eager to quit the company the moment they get a chance.
Avoid Making Claims in Interviews That Are Seem "Selfish"
Before you tell potential employers about your aspirations to go graduate school, you should examine why you want to do so. Do you want to prove that you're a motivated person by showing up late to work after studying or taking an exam, or do you want to show up late to work because you're worried about losing out on time to turn in a major paper, etc.?
Mentioning your intention to go graduate school could be seen by employers as a subtle method of expressing your interest in being hired by them.
