Hi! My name is Jodi Chromy. I am the Director and Lead Teacher of Little
Spirits Preschool. This is my fifth year teaching at St. Wenceslaus School.
My family has been a part of the school community for many years and I have a
great respect for Catholic education. The faith-filled lessons and social
teaching that are prominent throughout the curriculum have impacted my
children in many positive ways. My husband, Chris, and I have five
children...Justin (16), Eric (13), Katelyn (11), Matthew (8), and Sarah (7).
We also have one dog, a black lab named Blake. During the summer months, my
family enjoys hiking and camping.
My name is Diane Barrier. I am the Asst. Lead Teacher for the Pre-K Program.
After teaching at a Catholic elementary school for 10 years, I was fortunate
enough to be able to stay home with our three children. My family and I feel
very blessed to be a part of the St. Wenceslaus School family. When not in
school, we like to play in our backyard, camp, read, go fishing, and play
games together.
My name is Annie Schmitz. I am working with the Pre-K Red Group as the
Classroom Aide. My husband Gordie and I have three daughters, Ellie (12),
Olivia (10) and Lucy (7). As a St. Wenc graduate, I am so proud to have my
daughters be a part of this wonderful school community! I became a
stay-at-home mom shortly after the birth of our third daughter. Being home
has been such a fulfilling experience; I am very excited in my current
adventure - Little Spirits Preschool! I look forward to working with you and
your children! Our family enjoys spending time at our camper on Lake Mille
Lacs, boating, fishing, going on walks, watching the Twins, and just being
together.
My name is Traci Schoenbauer. I am the Classroom Aide for the Preschool 3's
Group. I was a stay-at-home mom for 13 years and I enjoyed every year of it!
My husband, Jeff and I both grew up in New Prague; St. Wenceslaus has always
been a big part of our lives. We now have 2 children who attend SWS and one
graduate. Sara is in 9th grade, Annie is in 7th, and Ryan in 5th. We enjoy
all aspects of the school and are very proud to be a part of this faith
community. Our family enjoys playing games - indoors and out, reading,
cooking, fishing and vacationing.
St. Wenceslaus Little Spirits Preschool is dedicated to providing a nurturing
environment that enhances spiritual growth. In partnership with parents, we
establish a solid foundation while considering the individual learning style of
each child.
