Ingrid Bouteille serves the St. Joseph team as the kindergarten/1st grade Multi-Age Classroom teacher. She received a BS in health science from Chico State, and continued at Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont to get her teaching credential. She taught first grade for five years at Catholic schools in Northern California, and took a break to start a family. As her boys progressed through school, Ingrid was very busy volunteering in their classrooms and in the PTA. Now that they are older, Ingrid is eager to return to teaching and feels blessed to be part of the St. Joseph community.
