​SEVENTH GRADE SCIENCE

Dear students,
 
For those of you that are new to ICS, my name is Stacy Jones and this is my fifteenth year teaching 6th, 7th and 8thgrade science at ICS. I have always enjoyed science and I am looking forward to sharing the marvels of science with you this year.
I have been involved in science in one form or another for nearly forty years.  I graduated from Virginia Tech with a BS degree in Biology with a Microbiology option. I then received an MS degree in Microbiology and Immunology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I came back home to New Jersey after graduating from UNC and worked for a biotech company doing research and product development. While there, I worked on the early detection of colorectal cancer. I took a hiatus from working outside of the home when I had my two daughters, Lauren and Becky. They are both alumni of ICS; Lauren went on to graduate from  Cornell University and is currently a high school English teacher in Boston.  Becky just graduated from Lehigh University with a Biology degree and is taking a year off to apply to graduate schools and veterinarian schools. When I started back to work, I decided to use my science background to teach children. I returned to school and obtained my teaching certificates in Elementary Education and Biology and then I started working at ICS.
I look forward to seeing you all in the fall. I hope you have a wonderful and relaxing summer. I will see you in September.
 
Sincerely,
 
Mrs. Jones
