OUR SCHOOL
Welcome to St. Aloysius School!
Whether you are a longtime member of our school family or are just discovering us for the first time, I am so glad you are here. St. Aloysius has been my home for most of my life — first as a student, then as a teacher, and now as principal — and I can say with complete confidence that this is a community like no other. Ours is a school where families show up for one another and for our students in ways that make this place truly special, and I am honored to welcome you into it.
A Community United
As principal, I have the privilege of collaborating with our incredible teachers as they nurture the academic and spiritual growth of your children, walking alongside parents as they navigate raising kids in today's world, and connecting with our wider community to share Christ's message and the Catholic virtues we hold dear. Every day, I am reminded that we are all part of the Body of Christ, each playing our own role in sharing His message — and there is nothing I find more meaningful than doing that work alongside this community.
Why Catholic Education
At St. Aloysius, God is at the center of everything we do. Our students learn that He has a place in their accomplishments, their struggles, and their everyday decisions. Learning here is a joyful experience, because our students do it all alongside their best friend, Jesus. Our small class sizes allow for individualized attention, and our strong curriculum ensures our students are challenged academically. Just as important, our school places a deep emphasis on community and character, helping our students grow in virtue through service and giving.
God is present in every part of our students' lives — in a quiet prayer before a big test, in a small act of kindness on the playground, and yes, even in the complexity of algebraic reasoning. It is a joy to walk alongside our students as they come to know God's immense love and discover their own personal relationship with Him.
What Our Students Need to Succeed
Above all, our students need a community that works together for their good. As principal, my role is to support our teachers — the ones who spend countless hours each day meeting our students with enthusiasm, building them up according to their unique needs, and guiding them with both gentleness and high expectations. And none of this works without our families. Parents play the most important role in a child's life, and it is essential that home and school listen to one another, growing together to help each child reach their full potential.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve this community I love. Please know
my door is always open, and I look forward to welcoming you and your family
to St. Aloysius School.
With gratitude and in Christ,
Danielle Hruby

Five Core Pillars of St. Aloysius
Meet Our School Family
K4 & Music Teacher
"I love spending time outdoors, especially hiking the Wisconsin State Parks, and spending time with my husband and two children in our little log cabin in the woods near Spring Green."
"There are so many activities that bring me joy! I especially love to be outdoors with my family. We love to fish, four wheel, and enjoy the beauty of nature. I also love to cook, which I noticed is a common interest at St. Aloysius School!"
"When I’m not at St. Aloysius or nannying, I like to read, write stories (which I’ve been doing since I was 13) and draw people from my stories. I also enjoy studying the faith
and I find Apologetics
particularly interesting."
"I enjoy dabbling in a lot of things! If I’m not singing, at the horse barn, or working on our latest house project, you may find me splashing in the creek with my boys, stargazing, or practicing hand lettering!"
"When I'm not teaching, I love spending quiet moments in prayer at Saint Norbert's beautiful church, along with time set aside for spiritual reading. I also enjoy cooking and baking, getting lost in a good book, drawing, and taking peaceful walks to enjoy the beauty around me."
"I like to spend time with my family, walking in our neighborhood, and spending time with friends! You might see me at a volleyball or basketball game or a Diocesan talk. I live on the West side of Madison close enough to hear the bells at Holy Name Heights. My favorite decade of the Rosary is the Visitation!"

"I enjoy spending time with my family camping, fishing, or just getting together for a backyard barbecue. When the weather is nice, we love to be out on the boat, take hikes, or go on bike rides. In our free time, we love to play card games like Euchre, Rummy, Cribbage, and most recently a game my oldest taught me called “Garbage.” In the off-chance I have a quiet moment, you’ll find me glued to a good book or taking a walk jamming to some Josiah Queen."

"I'm a 2014 graduate of St. Ambrose Academy and a 2018 graduate of Saint Mary's in Minnesota. For two years, I also furthered my formation at Sacred Heart Major Seminary for the Diocese of Madison. Since 2020, I've run my own contracting business, an experience that taught me a great deal about discipline, service, and working with people. Now I'm excited to bring that formation and experience full circle, putting my education to work in a field I love. I look forward to growing in faith and intellect alongside your students and to being part of this community. "
"I love attacking a new art project or arts & crafts activity. A more relaxed hobby is roasting pudgy pies and s’mores over an evening campfire with my husband and 6 kids. And I love food and trying new recipes!"
"I enjoy spending time outdoors, jogging, hiking, open sea swimming and doing sports in general. At home I like cooking, learning new things, sci-fi and fantasy movies."
Teacher Aide
" I enjoy spending time with my family -- especially with our 1st Grandchild! I like taking walks and being outdoors. Fall is my favorite time of year. I enjoy the cooler weather."
"I enjoy doing puzzles and trivia games. I love to travel, especially to anywhere warm. I like baseball and football and I am a New Orleans Saints fan. I also enjoy going to concerts, musicals , eating out and spending time with friends. I enjoy plants and flowers. Most of all I enjoy spending time with my family especially playing board and card games with my grandchildren and watching them play sports. My favorite colors are blue and yellow , I love dogs and my favorite season is summer."
"In my free time, you’ll most likely find me enjoying a hot cup of tea and a good book. My other interests include traveling, genealogy, thrifting, board games, studying history and the classical arts, and diving deep into the Catholic faith and traditions. St. Thérèse of Lisieux is my favorite saint and I love flowers!"
"I love walking in nature and being of help to whoever needs me. I love children, I love to play with them and I have a lot of patience! Above all, I love God and my family."
Custodian, MS Computer Science
"When I am not keeping our school safe, clean, and running smoothly, I love spending my time bass fishing, staying active with personal fitness, and diving into books about history, finance, and economics. I am incredibly blessed to be back home and working at Saint Aloysius School after a 20 year career in the Navy."
"I like to garden, bake, go fishing, and read. You may see me biking down the Riverwalk in Sauk Prairie or finding a new book at the library. I also enjoy taking in the beauty of our wonderful Sauk Prairie community by going for walks while listening to my favorite Christian artists or praying the Rosary.
"I love teaching the Faith as part of my ministry and Computer Science as my personal hobby. Teaching the children the logic of coding as a means to improve their reasoning and problem-solving skills gives me great satisfaction."
"I was born in Chile, educated in Spain and ordained as a priest in the USA. I love reading about theology and history as well as playing soccer; but above all, I love teaching religion."
