KELSEY KACZ

Account Solutions Manager

Hello, my name is Kelsey Kacz, and I am the Account Solutions Manager for Indiana. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education and immediately after started my teaching career.

I joined Great Minds with 8 years of classroom experience in elementary education, teaching third and fourth grade, and held several leadership positions on curricular and grade-level committees.

With my hands-on experience in the classroom as well as behind-the-scenes work as a leader on curricular committees, I have implemented and led multiple curriculum reviews and adoptions. I understand the importance of bringing High-Quality Instructional Materials into schools to help all students build knowledge and succeed. I am thrilled to be able to work with school districts across Indiana to support educators reach their school achievement goals.

I enjoy spending time with my family, dog, and friends, being outside when it’s sunny and warm, or reading a book! My fiancé and I relocated to Indiana in the summer of 2022, and I’m very excited to be supporting this great state. 

UNLOCK GREATNESS IN EVERY STUDENT

Who We Are

What began as a small group of K–12 advocates with a passion for knowledge has grown quickly into teams of hundreds of teacher-writers on a mission to elevate education in every classroom.

Great Minds makes knowledge accessible to all in the form of high-quality curricula in mathematics, English language arts, science, and more.

The Great Minds Difference

At Great Minds, it’s all about building knowledge - not just skills. Building deep, lasting understanding rather than just memorizing. That’s why we embed layers upon layers of knowledge into our curricula. Knowledge in the context of the real world, rather than hypothetical scenarios. Knowledge through consistent core skill development, rather than reinventing the wheel with each lesson. And the knowledge that builds upon itself for stronger connections throughout the learning process.

Every child has unlimited potential and is capable of greatness.
