Mrs. Darcel Williams To All Instructors

Hi! I am Emmet and Tobias Ridinger’s mom. I have been homeschooling my sons since the fall of 2020. I was raised in Metlakatla, Alaska but spent my junior year of high school in Washington State and then graduated from Ketchikan High School. I then spent 4 years at Middlebury College in Vermont and received a bachelors degree in Sociology and Anthropology. After college, I worked as a certified behavioral health aide, community engagement coordinator, and a high school assistant basketball coach in Unalaska/Dutch Harbor. I moved back to Ketchikan in 2011 to work as the Tribal Liaison and Study Skills Coordinator for a collaborative effort between the Ketchikan Indian Community and KGBSD to raise the graduation rates of native students. At the same time, I also served as the girls high school assistant basketball coach. I then started focusing on a student counselor masters degree and was four credits shy of graduating when God showed me he had a different plan. I’ve been home with my sons for the past 10 years and while I’ve enjoyed all of my previous roles, my favorite of all has been guiding my sons' faith and education.
