May 2022 Employee Spotlight

Mrs. Smith, Middle School Science Teacher

How long have you been at ICS and what do you do?
I have been at ICS since January 2018 when I joined the faculty as a 4th-grade teacher. I currently teach middle school English, Middle School Leadership Team (MSLT), and Study Skills.

What brought you to ICS?
I came to ICS looking to continue my career in Christian education with a school that was a better fit for my experience, skills, and abilities. I had heard some great things about ICS, which drew me here. God confirmed that this was where He wanted me to be and opened the door for me to join the faculty here.

What is one thing that has happened at school recently that you'd like to share?
I do not have a specific story, but  I enjoy getting to know my students.  Each day there is a story or something that a student says that makes me laugh. It could be about a student losing their voice or something silly they did over the weekend. It could also be something that I said in class and the student cannot stop laughing about.  There are so many moments of joy.

What is your hope for your students and/or our school this year?
My deep hope is for my students to be image reflectors of Christ by showing love and respect for each other within our school community and sharing that same love and respect with others outside of school as well.
