Alexa Zook

Hi, my name is Alexa Zook.  I began teaching at Holy Spirit in 2018.  I have taught 5th grade and technology.  I grew up in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, in the central lower peninsula.  I went to school at Grand Valley State University in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area.  I graduated in 2006 with a degree in elementary education. I substitute taught for a year, and then taught preschool at a local day care.  In 2010, I moved to the Fox Valley and have lived here ever since. I taught in the two year old room at a local day care, and then in the spring of 2013, I decided to stay home with my children, and run an in home day care center.  I was hired on to teach at Holy Spirit in the summer of 2018.  
I live in Neenah with my husband Todd, and our twin daughters Payton and Hannah.  I am an avid reader, and I love swimming, running, and baking. I love to learn, and I teach so I can pass my passion for learning on to the next generation.  My favorite thing about teaching is watching students have an “ah-ha” moment and finally conquer a challenge.  
This is my first experience teaching in a parochial school setting and I felt welcomed into this tight knit community right away.  Holy Spirit is a wondering community.  I love continueing to learn and grow here with the students!
