Anna Lenshek

Mrs. Lenshek earned a B.A. in Liberal Arts/Great Books from Thomas Aquinas College (Santa Paula, CA), a B.Ed. from Brock University (St. Catharines, Ontario), and an M.A. in Philosophy at the Catholic University of America (Washington, DC).

Mrs. Lenshek has more than a decade and a half of experience as a classical educator, including as teacher and department head of English and Latin at Hawthorn School for Girls in Toronto, and as a teaching fellow in the School of Philosophy at the Catholic University of America. She has been teaching Latin, Music, and Philosophy at Chesterton Academy - Queen of Martyrs since it opened in the fall of 2024. 

Mrs. Lenshek is grateful for the chance to share with students the ancient wisdom of Greece and Rome, and the riches of our Catholic tradition. She especially enjoys the way our Latin and music classes build on each other in Chesterton's integrated curriculum, and the way singing shapes the daily life of our school.

Ben Pike

Mr. Pike is the new full-time math teacher. He holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, which he earned in 2017.

In college, he served as a math tutor and worked in a role similar to a teaching assistant. After exploring sales opportunities after college, Mr. Pike began substitute teaching in his hometown, Waunakee School District, two years ago. He also started a math tutoring business, and these led to teaching math part-time at St. Ambrose last year.

Mr. Pike is excited to see the growth of the students in mathematics, which has been a national area of concern over the last decade. He hopes to show the logic and order of the universe as God designed it.

Aidan Luzarraga

Mr. Luzarraga is a recent graduate of Wyoming Catholic College, where he earned his Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts through a rigorous Great Books program rooted in the Catholic intellectual tradition. His academic formation included Socratic seminars, classical texts, and outdoor leadership through the college’s Experiential Leadership Program, which involved planning and guiding wilderness expeditions designed to build resilience, communication, and teamwork.

Mr. Luzarraga brings a deep love for classical Catholic education, having experienced it firsthand in both high school and college. Through his involvement with the Totus Tuus program, he has taught Theology to students in grades 1–12, led youth groups, and given talks and one-on-one mentorship rooted in the Catholic faith.

In the classroom, Mr. Luzarraga is passionate about forming the whole person, mind, body, and soul, by creating a structured and dynamic environment where students encounter truth, goodness, and beauty. In his second year at Chesterton Academy, he will be teaching History, Theology, Literature and Drama

Mr. Luzarraga is also our Cross Country Coach, drawing on his own athletic experience and leadership skills to help students grow in discipline, perseverance, and camaraderie. We are thrilled to welcome him to the team and look forward to all the gifts he brings to our school community.

Lynn Puhr

Mrs. Puhr holds a Master of Science in Organizational Behavior from Benedictine University (Lisle, Illinois) and a Liberal Arts degree from DePaul University’s School for New Learning (Chicago, Illinois).

She recently retired from GE HealthCare, where she served as the Global Learning Director for Medical Device Regulatory Compliance. Prior to her work at GE HealthCare, Mrs. Puhr held numerous leadership roles in corporate Learning and Development, specializing in leadership development, technical training, and compliance education. Her experience includes positions with Sears, Roebuck and Co., Forsythe Consulting, and Durham College in Oshawa, Ontario.

Although her professional background is rooted in business and organizational learning, Mrs. Puhr has always nurtured a deep love for the Arts—drawing, painting, and exploring art and artistic traditions around the world. A formative high school art teacher recognized a gift she herself had not yet discovered, inspiring her to grow in confidence and ultimately earn the Senior Art Award upon graduation.

This experience shaped her lifelong desire to help young people discover their God‑given talents. At Chesterton Academy’s Queen of Martyrs, Mrs. Puhr hopes to guide students in uncovering and developing the artistic gifts placed within them, encouraging each one to grow as both an artist and a child of God.

Dr. John Bohn

Dr. Bohn brings to our school a wealth of experience from his long career in medicine. He was first a pharmacist, and then for many years a pediatrician - for both of which professions he graduated with top honors from UW-Madison. During his career as a doctor, he also served as an instructor and supervisor of both medical students and other doctors.

Since his retirement, Dr. Bohn has dedicated himself both to Catholic causes in general - including Madison Vigil for Life, and many other works in service to the most vulnerable among us - and Catholic education in particular, teaching various sciences for several years in the Catholic Schoolhouse program at St. Mary's in Pine Bluff, WI.

Regarding this new challenge - creating a Chemistry program from nothing, on a shoestring budget - Dr. Bohn says, "I am excited to have the privilege of teaching chemistry to Chesterton students this coming year! It will be an interesting and noble adventure.  Bring it on!"

Francesca Redington

Ms. Redington is a joyful Catholic devoted to forming students in both the knowledge of Ancient History and New Testament Theology.  One of the first graduates of Chesterton Academy of Milwaukee, she is shaped by the classical, Catholic approach to education. She recently earned her Bachelor of Science in Communications Media from John Paul the Great Catholic University, where she studied the power of narrative, culture, and tradition in the life of the Church. She is determined to impress upon students the will to continually wonder at God and His creation. Being the product of a lifetime of catholic education, Ms. Redington is eager to continue to form generations to come.

While her background is primarily in art and social sciences, she built up knowledge of history and theology in her journey to pursue insight on creation through God. From case studies on lives of saints to extensive history books to long fantasy novels, Francesca is constantly reading. She is always marveling at the world, picking up new knowledge, and trying to grow in Christ.

Ms. Redington learned and taught Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, a Montessori-based approach to religious formation that nurtures a child’s relationship with God through Scripture, liturgy, and hands-on learning. This work has deeply influenced her approach to older students, it is grounded in reverence, wonder, and the understanding that every student is capable of a genuine relationship with Christ.

In Ms. Redington’s second year at Chesterton Academy, she will be teaching Theology, History and Philosophy.
