Stacie Ticona
B.A. in Elementary Education, Moody Bible Institute
Stacie graduated from Moody Bible Institute with an Elementary Education major. She completed her student teaching with 4th grade in Cornerstone Christian Academy in Sycamore, IL and her kindergarten student teaching in Chicago in Humboldt Park Christian Academy. She met her college sweetheart, Nico, at Moody Bible. Soon after graduating, they got married and went to do missionary work with a Christian school in Ayacucho, in the Andes Mountains of Peru. They served there for five years with various responsibilities, and by God's grace planted a church with the families of the school. They had two boys while they were in Peru, Joshua and David. In 2015, they returned to the States. Stacie taught one year as a Kindergarten Bilingual teacher, and then made the decision to stay at home when she had her third child, Gracia. Her husband currently pastors in a Spanish speaking church in Aurora. Soon after, they had their fourth child, Caleb. They currently live in Plano, IL. Stacie enjoys serving with the women's ministry in her church and spending time with her family. Stacie will be teaching Spanish this year for PreK-Middle School. She and her children are looking forward to being part of the ACS family!
