Tamara Ormson
Headmaster

Mrs. Ormson has been our constant since the Academy was founded. She holds a BS in Elementary Education grades K- 8 from Mount Senario College in Ladysmith, WI.

Mrs. Jana Derricks
3-4 Teacher

Mrs. Derricks is returning to teach at AMA for this first semester of the 2021-2022 school year. After a few years teaching here, she quit to be a stay-at-home-homeschooling mom for the past 8 years. She married my awesome high school sweetheart, Dominic, 12 years ago. They have 5 children and baby #6 is due in January. She graduated from Plum City High School and then UWRF with an elementary education degree. She is excited to be back at AMA, and serving in a community that has meant so much to me and she is really looking forward to getting to know each of you and her students as they work together this school year.

Mrs. Jacqui Steele
6-8 Teacher

Mrs. Steele has been a part of Ave Maria Academy since 2011 and brings with her a B.S. in Secondary Education with the emphasis on Broad Area English. She says there are many reasons why she became an educator, “First, I love learning. As a teacher, I continue learning to stay current with new concepts and ideas. Secondly, I love the sight of students grasping a new concept, and growing to master that concept. Knowing I play a part in that growth is phenomenal. Finally, teaching forever invites me to stay young at heart.” She loves spending time with her husband, Chad; daughters, Brittany and Catherine; and grandsons Brenden and Edwin.
