Rachel Bragstad Valdivia
Social Worker

As a school social worker, I aim to make all students and families feel welcomed and supported. I work to provide students and families with the tools they need to be successful both inside and outside of school.

This is my 6th year as a school social worker, the previous 5 years being in a public school setting. My favorite thing about ICS is the strong sense of community and culture that envelopes this school. There truly is nothing like it.

I enjoy learning more about different cultures and am always seeking new information to grow my skills and knowledge. I am also involved with the volleyball program here at ICS and you'll often find me outside of school playing indoor, sand, or grass volleyball. I also love to read, craft, and spend time with my family (including my cat, Chloe).

I feel extremely blessed to be a part of this community and am greatly looking forward to connecting with more students and families.
