Meet Mrs. Pethtel!

What’s your new ICS position?

My position will be elementary S.T.E.M. teacher for Pre-K through fifth grade. S.T.E.M. stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. This class will be very interactive with a focus on hands on learning. Our topics will include rockets, circuits, coding, building and architecture, chemistry, forces and motion and so much more!

Where are you from?

I grew up in the midwest and I have had the privilege of living overseas as a missionary and around the US working for Christian schools.

Where do you go to church?

Attending Hope Church!

Tell us about your family!

I have a wonderful husband and four great kids (three boys and one girl). Our oldest is a pilot in the Air Force, our next son is a senior at Baylor University and in Army ROTC, our third child is Emma who is a junior at ICS and our youngest is Hudson who is in the second grade at ICS.

What is something most people don’t know about you?

I am passionate about encouraging students to explore the wonders of God's creation in such areas of science, technology, engineering, and math.

What are you looking forward to most in your new role at ICS?

I am looking forward to meeting my students and their families. I love seeing student’s faces light up when they complete a challenge and learn something new.

What else would you like for the ICS community to know about you? Fun fact?

I enjoy listening to music and doing Zumba. I love water skiing and being on the water either a lake or an ocean. I am enjoying hiking and getting to know Utah!
