My name is Catherine Bartol and I have been teaching kindergarten at Mendota Elementary since 2000. I am a graduate of Minnesota State University, Mankato and received my Masters Degree from St. Mary's University. In my free time, I like spending time with my family. We enjoy a lot of outdoor activities, traveling, and going to the kids' sporting events. I have always enjoyed the curiosity and enthusiasm that young children have for learning. My goal is that every child will learn at their level through a variety of learning experiences.
