Fred S. Klipsch Educators College

The Purpose Driven Leadership Series is officially coming up on June 22 & 23! This series is all about recognizing leaders who drive real impact through vision and compassion.

We are thrilled to spotlight our Day 1 lineup for June 22:

✨ Tom Hakim (Northview Middle School Principal & 2025 Indiana Middle School Principal of the Year) will be sharing his insights on fostering a Culture of Learning.
✨ Anna Shults (Chief Academic Officer at the Indiana Department of Education) will be diving into the Culture of Creating.

We look forward to an inspiring two-night series!

Leadership isn’t about having the answer. It’s about knowing what to do when there isn’t one.

What if the way we’ve been preparing teachers isn’t enough anymore? We think it can be better.

Celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week with exciting alumni news!

Congratulations to Jenny Hernandez, a 2025 Marian University Klipsch Educators College elementary education graduate, who was named Elementary New Teacher of the Year for Warren Township.

With 10 elementary schools across the district, this recognition is an incredible testament to the way Jenny is already making an impact as a new educator. In sharing the news, Jenny reflected on the KEC faculty who helped shape her journey, saying they taught her “to teach with passion and with love.”

We are so proud to see Jenny carrying that passion into her own classroom and leading with heart, purpose, and care for her students.

Congratulations, Jenny!

Congratulations to our graduate students who participated in the 2026 Klipsch Educators College Hooding Ceremony last night!

What an inspiring night at ReIMAGINing 2026! Students in Nancy Meyer-Brown’s Entrepreneurial Research class brought their hard work to life and showcased their creativity and critical thinking. Thank you to everyone who joined us!

Excited to continue growing one of our favorite traditions!

This spring, Klipsch Educators College hosted Family STEM Night with Vision Academy students and their families. We partnered with a REID partner, and we’re hopeful this becomes an annual spring event with Vision.

“The family STEM night is a great opportunity for our future science educators to put their content knowledge into practice with local elementary students and their families. The Marian students plan the event, create the marketing materials, and translate all resources into Spanish to make the event more accessible for families. The family STEM night is the highlight of the semester for me and the students in the science course!”

Grateful for the partnership and everyone who made the night such a success!

Congratulations to Allison Segarra Hansen on being named one of Indy’s Best and Brightest by Junior Achievement—a well-deserved recognition of her impact and leadership.

From all of us at Marian University Klipsch Educators College, we’re proud to celebrate this achievement!
