During that time she served on a variety of committees dealing with budgets and finance, negotiations, hiring practices, benefits, policy, curriculum and assessment, technology, and public relations.     

She was born and raised in Rock Springs and has lived in McKinnon and Green River. She has been in Green River for the past 15 years.   

Cristy has worked for the City of Rock Springs, WWCC, Sweetwater School District No. 2, and Sweetwater School District No. 1. She was previously on the school board for School District No. 2 (two – 4 year terms).   

Dr. Pelham holds a PhD in Education and is currently attending the University of Wyoming to complete her superintendent certificate. She is a published author and has presented at a variety of conferences on education, both nationally and statewide. 

She enjoys football, time with family and friends, watching movies, and learning.   

“I want to return to the SCSD No. 2 school board to help ensure both my children, and all the others in SCSD No. 2, receive a good education with a balance of learning opportunities including sports, the arts, and college and career readiness.

With Covid-19, budget cuts, legal issues, and a teacher shortage times will be tough for SCSD No. 2. I believe I can bring experience as a former board member, educator and parent to help the board and new Superintendent navigate these waters.
