President's Message

Welcome to the Indiana Connected Educators website, the online home of a vibrant and passionate community of educators dedicated to improving learning outcomes for all students. For over 40 years, our mission continues to empower educators through collaboration, professional development, and networking opportunities, ultimately advancing the education landscape in Indiana. We believe in the power of connectedness and the transformative impact it can have on teaching and learning.



We had so much fun last October, we thought we'd host our Fall Conference again this year! We can't wait to see you all in October 2024 as the Indiana Connected Educators continue to value and prioritize face-to-face learning and improving ourselves so we can be better for our students. Whether you're a classroom teacher, school administrator, or education professional, we invite you to join us this Fall.


Please explore our website to learn more about our organization, upcoming events, and resources for educators. We also invite you to follow us on social media (@iceindiana) to stay up-to-date on the latest news and insights from our community.


Thank you for your interest in Indiana Connected Educators. We look forward to connecting with you and working together to create a brighter future for all students.


Sincerely,

Alison Schlotfeldt

President, Indiana Connected Educators
