Catholicism has always been a huge part of my life and I look forward to growing with the school in our identity. I received my bachelor’s degree with a dual major of education and political science. I taught middle school social studies for five years just outside of Denver, CO before coming to Madison to complete a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis. I have a passion for working with both students and teachers and each year hope to continue the awesome legacy of St. Mary’s. Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media. I look forward to learning, growing, and serving with each of you.[/person][/one_full][one_half last=\"no\" spacing=\"yes\" center_content=\"no\" hide_on_mobile=\"no\" background_color=\"\" background_image=\"\" background_repeat=\"no-repeat\" background_position=\"left top\" hover_type=\"none\" link=\"\" border_position=\"all\" border_size=\"0px\" border_color=\"\" border_style=\"\" padding=\"\" margin_top=\"\" margin_bottom=\"\" animation_type=\"\" animation_direction=\"\" animation_speed=\"0.1\" animation_offset=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"][person name=\"Mrs. Sue Vodak\" title=\"Secretary\" picture=\"http://stmaryschoolwi.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/139-240x300.jpg\" pic_link=\"\" linktarget=\"_self\" pic_style=\"none\" hover_type=\"none\" background_color=\"\" content_alignment=\"\" pic_style_color=\"\" pic_bordersize=\"0\" pic_bordercolor=\"\" pic_borderradius=\"0\" icon_position=\"\" social_icon_boxed=\"no\" social_icon_boxed_radius=\"4px\" social_icon_colors=\"\" social_icon_boxed_colors=\"\" social_icon_tooltip=\"\" email=\"svodak@nativitymary.org\" facebook=\"\" twitter=\"\" instagram=\"\" dribbble=\"\" google=\"\" linkedin=\"\" blogger=\"\" tumblr=\"\" reddit=\"\" yahoo=\"\" deviantart=\"\" vimeo=\"\" youtube=\"\" pinterest=\"\" rss=\"\" digg=\"\" flickr=\"\" forrst=\"\" myspace=\"\" skype=\"\" paypal=\"\" dropbox=\"\" soundcloud=\"\" vk=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"]I have been the school secretary at St. Mary School for over 35 years.

I have a passion for working with both students and teachers and each year hope to continue the awesome legacy of St. Mary’s. Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media.

I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media.

Catholicism has always been a huge part of my life and I look forward to growing with the school in our identity. I received my bachelor’s degree with a dual major of education and political science. I taught middle school social studies for five years just outside of Denver, CO before coming to Madison to complete a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis. I have a passion for working with both students and teachers and each year hope to continue the awesome legacy of St. Mary’s. Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media. I look forward to learning, growing, and serving with each of you.[/person][/one_full][one_half last=\"no\" spacing=\"yes\" center_content=\"no\" hide_on_mobile=\"no\" background_color=\"\" background_image=\"\" background_repeat=\"no-repeat\" background_position=\"left top\" hover_type=\"none\" link=\"\" border_position=\"all\" border_size=\"0px\" border_color=\"\" border_style=\"\" padding=\"\" margin_top=\"\" margin_bottom=\"\" animation_type=\"\" animation_direction=\"\" animation_speed=\"0.1\" animation_offset=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"][person name=\"Mrs. Sue Vodak\" title=\"Secretary\" picture=\"http://stmaryschoolwi.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/139-240x300.jpg\" pic_link=\"\" linktarget=\"_self\" pic_style=\"none\" hover_type=\"none\" background_color=\"\" content_alignment=\"\" pic_style_color=\"\" pic_bordersize=\"0\" pic_bordercolor=\"\" pic_borderradius=\"0\" icon_position=\"\" social_icon_boxed=\"no\" social_icon_boxed_radius=\"4px\" social_icon_colors=\"\" social_icon_boxed_colors=\"\" social_icon_tooltip=\"\" email=\"svodak@nativitymary.org\" facebook=\"\" twitter=\"\" instagram=\"\" dribbble=\"\" google=\"\" linkedin=\"\" blogger=\"\" tumblr=\"\" reddit=\"\" yahoo=\"\" deviantart=\"\" vimeo=\"\" youtube=\"\" pinterest=\"\" rss=\"\" digg=\"\" flickr=\"\" forrst=\"\" myspace=\"\" skype=\"\" paypal=\"\" dropbox=\"\" soundcloud=\"\" vk=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"]I have been the school secretary at St. Mary School for over 35 years.

I taught middle school social studies for five years just outside of Denver, CO before coming to Madison to complete a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis. I have a passion for working with both students and teachers and each year hope to continue the awesome legacy of St. Mary’s. Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media. I look forward to learning, growing, and serving with each of you.[/person][/one_full][one_half last=\"no\" spacing=\"yes\" center_content=\"no\" hide_on_mobile=\"no\" background_color=\"\" background_image=\"\" background_repeat=\"no-repeat\" background_position=\"left top\" hover_type=\"none\" link=\"\" border_position=\"all\" border_size=\"0px\" border_color=\"\" border_style=\"\" padding=\"\" margin_top=\"\" margin_bottom=\"\" animation_type=\"\" animation_direction=\"\" animation_speed=\"0.1\" animation_offset=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"][person name=\"Mrs. Sue Vodak\" title=\"Secretary\" picture=\"http://stmaryschoolwi.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/139-240x300.jpg\" pic_link=\"\" linktarget=\"_self\" pic_style=\"none\" hover_type=\"none\" background_color=\"\" content_alignment=\"\" pic_style_color=\"\" pic_bordersize=\"0\" pic_bordercolor=\"\" pic_borderradius=\"0\" icon_position=\"\" social_icon_boxed=\"no\" social_icon_boxed_radius=\"4px\" social_icon_colors=\"\" social_icon_boxed_colors=\"\" social_icon_tooltip=\"\" email=\"svodak@nativitymary.org\" facebook=\"\" twitter=\"\" instagram=\"\" dribbble=\"\" google=\"\" linkedin=\"\" blogger=\"\" tumblr=\"\" reddit=\"\" yahoo=\"\" deviantart=\"\" vimeo=\"\" youtube=\"\" pinterest=\"\" rss=\"\" digg=\"\" flickr=\"\" forrst=\"\" myspace=\"\" skype=\"\" paypal=\"\" dropbox=\"\" soundcloud=\"\" vk=\"\" class=\"\" id=\"\"]I have been the school secretary at St. Mary School for over 35 years.

Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media.

Catholicism has always been a huge part of my life and I look forward to growing with the school in our identity. I received my bachelor’s degree with a dual major of education and political science. I taught middle school social studies for five years just outside of Denver, CO before coming to Madison to complete a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis. I have a passion for working with both students and teachers and each year hope to continue the awesome legacy of St. Mary’s. Outside of education, I enjoy sports (yes, I am a Packer fan!) and love to travel. I look forward engaging in personalized learning this year, which will involve each teacher looking at the strengths and growth areas for the students in their classes and developing goals while also receiving student input on how those goals are best accomplished. We will be challenging all students to discover their own strengths, who will work with their instructors to grow and flourish. Additionally, I look forward to advancing our student learning through technology. It is my goal that these devices do not act as a replacement to paper, pencils, and textbooks, but rather transform the learning experiences for our students by empowering them to create, providing spaces to harness collaboration, and immerse themselves in a variety of learning-based media.
