Hello everybody and welcome to the brighter together podcast. My name is Janet Courtney and my special guest today is Kim Gore. Kim is the director of professional learning at the National Catholic Education Association and that’s in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Kim, welcome to the show. Awesome, so tell us Kim a little bit about you and exactly what it is that you do.

Kim Gorr (00:16.6)
Thank

Thank

Kim Gorr (00:28.526)
So I have been in the field of education for over 30 years. spent 20 years in the classroom before moving into leadership and most recently taking on a position called the Director of Catholic, no, that was my old title, taking on a new role of the Director of Professional Learning at NCEA, which is the National Catholic Education Association. I am very.

fortunate to work with educators across the country looking for content that is most needed by our Catholic school superintendents, principals, teachers, that ultimately ends up benefiting the students in our schools. So I, you know, host webinars and look at blogs and again, really it’s just content. It is the scope or the gamut of the content that

impacts our Catholic schools.

Lighthouse Therapy (01:27.252)
Awesome. And so when you talk about Catholic schools, how many Catholic schools are there in the United States? Do you have like a ballpark number?

Kim Gorr (01:36.864)
I don’t, but I could certainly find that for you.

Lighthouse Therapy (01:39.848)
No, it’s okay. It’s okay. I’m just curious because I’m like, you’re talking about national. That’s not two or three schools, right? I mean, it’s, it’s in the thousands. Yeah, it’s in the thousands. Okay. That’s what I thought. Cause I’m like, that’s not, you don’t have a small job. No, definitely not a small job. That’s exciting. I mean, I grew up in, go ahead. No, go ahead.

Kim Gorr (01:45.344)
no, there’s thousands, there’s just thousands.

Kim Gorr (01:53.134)
No, no. I was just gonna say, the scope of our schools from very, very small to what we call a micro school, which could just be a handful of teachers and, you know, less than, you know, between 50 and 100 students to our Catholic high schools that have, could have thousands of students. So the size of our schools really, you know, is kind of the broad spectrum of

Lighthouse Therapy (02:16.724)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (02:23.054)
quiet town.

Lighthouse Therapy (02:24.382)
Yeah, when I grew up in Grand Island, Nebraska, I know there’s a Catholic school there. I didn’t go to it, but my best friend did. I can’t even tell you the name of it anymore. I don’t remember. But I think it was a K-8, because I think after eighth grade, then they went. I don’t remember. gosh, that’s a long time ago. It was 40 years ago. But still, it’s like the Catholic faith is a very big.

Organization and I don’t even want to call it that you know, it’s not a and it’s not a religion. don’t wait whatever Association anyway, I’m just I’m trippin over it. I get it. I get it really get it, but I’m just like it’s exciting I mean and I have I have experience because I as I was telling you I was raised Catholic so I love the fact that I’m getting to talk to you and and talk about the beautiful things that God is doing in the Catholic Catholic Education Association, so

Kim Gorr (02:53.71)
Right.

Lighthouse Therapy (03:21.376)
Give us a little bit of a rundown of, no.

Kim Gorr (03:21.662)
And it’s particularly relevant this week because it is National Catholic Schools Week this week. So we are celebrating our Catholic schools. Yes.

Lighthouse Therapy (03:28.414)
Well, there you go. Awesome. those are, so the, just so you know, today for our listeners, today is January 27th, 2026. So by the time this is published, we’ll be passed, but that’s okay. That’s okay. We will celebrate it right now anyway. So that’s really awesome. So, so how did you get into this role? What, what led you to, to first of all, running a school and now you’re like over all of these organizations.

Kim Gorr (03:55.514)
Yeah, so it’s really interesting my career trajectory. My mother was a teacher and she was always very present in my life and I know I wanted to be a mom and I know I wanted to have a career. And so because I saw her being so successful as a teacher and as a mother, that’s kind of what drove me to education in the first place. And I was a teacher for about 20 years and I really and truly, I still to this day refer to

myself as a teacher. will always, I just will always be a teacher. I loved being in the classroom. But then when I made this switch to leadership as a principal and then as a superintendent, and now in this new role as the Director of Professional Learning,

Lighthouse Therapy (04:26.858)
Mm-hmm.

Yep.

Kim Gorr (04:45.004)
My passion has always been curriculum and instruction. So I have a master’s in curriculum instruction, my doctorate’s in curriculum instruction, because I am always seeking the opportunity and ways to make instruction better. We know that our students are changing as times are changing. If I think back to when I began my career in the mid 90s and to what it looks like today, it’s very different. I remember being a brand new teacher and listening

to veteran teachers at the time talk about, well, back when I started in kids 20, 30 years ago, and now that I’m at that point in my career, right? Like, like, like,

Lighthouse Therapy (05:23.624)
Yeah.

Kim Gorr (05:26.082)
the way that things evolved. And so I have always been extremely interested in staying current in best practices and changing and how we can best meet the needs of all of our students. And so this new role allows me to continue to be a lifelong learner, right? To continue to research, to identify strategies and techniques and now share it out, right? So when I was a teacher, I had the ability to impact

Lighthouse Therapy (05:29.023)
Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (05:46.75)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (05:56.016)
know, as a high school teacher, maybe 100, 125 students a year. Then as a building principal, I had the opportunity to impact 700, 800 students, right? And now I look at my new role that is the national position that impacts so many teachers and leaders and students, and that responsibility is a little bit larger, right? Well, a lot larger, right? Because making sure that all of our Catholic schools have, you know,

Lighthouse Therapy (06:00.735)
Mm-hmm.

Lighthouse Therapy (06:19.358)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Kim Gorr (06:25.946)
most relevant and current research and what is best practice in 2026 as opposed to 1990. And so I like that, right? Like I’ve always identified myself as a lifelong learner. And so being able to continue my own education and then sharing it out with others is really kind of what led me here.

Lighthouse Therapy (06:34.356)
Right.

Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (06:49.248)
Yeah, it’s interesting because I think you and I have very similar identities, you know, of who we are because I’m an SLP. I will always be a speech therapist first. I’m a CEO and a business owner and you know, I could serve 55 kids and now we have 3,300 kids or something, 3,300 kids or something like that this year so far. And you know, it’s like, yes, I can make that impact. But you know, and that was a hard, that was a hard one for me transitioning from

I remember God saying, it’s time for you to stop doing therapy. And I was like, don’t want to. You know, I really, really didn’t want to stop seeing the kids.

Kim Gorr (07:19.276)
Right. I was the same. Like I was like I was going to be a teacher forever. Right. And I technically still am. Right. Like I don’t have a class with students. Now I look at the educators as my students. Right. But but yeah that’s exactly exactly. I feel.

Lighthouse Therapy (07:26.501)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (07:37.918)
Yeah, but the impact that you and I are making is a huge one, you know, and a God-ordained one. And that’s the best thing too, is to just know that you’re in God’s will and doing what he’s called you to do is an amazing thing. And he never gives us more than we can handle, I don’t think anyway, and he guides us when it’s, you know, I never aspired to be a business owner, I never aspired to be a CEO.

But he called me to it and so, you know, he calls you I’m telling you better listen you better listen, you know, I don’t listen very well sometimes so, you know, that was one that was just like, I don’t know how to do that. I really don’t but you know, eight years later here I am and he has he has been so faithful through all of it. Right. So yeah, very cool. Very, very cool. so what is so this is really new. Like is it just like in the last couple months or

Kim Gorr (08:13.12)
Exactly.

Ha ha ha!

Kim Gorr (08:35.554)
Yeah, about three months.

Lighthouse Therapy (08:37.056)
three months ago. Yeah. So you’re just getting your feet wet, right? Yeah. So what is, what, what is the most exciting part of this new role for you?

Kim Gorr (08:40.835)
Yes.

Kim Gorr (08:47.918)
the opportunity to create content and share it. I’ve been kind of working with NCEA for a number of years in the different roles that I was at, and I used to present at conferences, and it was through those presentations where basically the presenters develop the content, they propose it, and then you get accepted to speak. And so I’ve been very fortunate to speak at a number of their conferences, and it was through those opportunities that I

Lighthouse Therapy (08:50.537)
Okay.

Lighthouse Therapy (09:11.583)
Okay.

Kim Gorr (09:17.872)
really started to really see what NCEA was about as a whole. again, I’m still pretty new, but the more I learn, was the right thing, right? It was allowing me to take that focus and that interest in curriculum, in instruction, in education as a whole, and develop it and share it. so, yeah, like you said, I’m still learning. So each day is something new.

and dipping my toe here and you know.

just really getting to see what it’s all about. But yeah, so it’s really kind of staying current. I think that’s so important. Like I’ve had some amazing myself as a student has some amazing teachers that continued to evolve with the times. And then I’ve worked with some teachers who, you know, may have been exceptional educators 20, 30 years ago, but they stagnated, right? Because they didn’t continue to grow and to broaden. And so

Lighthouse Therapy (09:55.2)
Yeah.

Kim Gorr (10:21.748)
I never wanted to be in that place of stagnation and so this new role is going to allow me to continue to be on the forefront of best practice and education.

Lighthouse Therapy (10:32.99)
Yeah, that’s great. That’s really great. so, you know, I love that I get to talk to all kinds of people, you know, across the gamut. this and you know, it’s like, it’s exciting just to hear your enthusiasm and with what’s happening. What would you say for the Catholic schools? Because you are you are coming from a very Christian model and they’re mostly private, right? I’m sure there are scholarships, but mostly private schools, right?

Kim Gorr (10:50.338)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (11:02.668)
Yeah, they’re all considered private schools.

Lighthouse Therapy (11:04.5)
Okay, yeah. So what would you say is one of the biggest challenges that we’re going to see as a private school, as a faith-based private school? I know that whole separation of church and state and you don’t have to deal with that, but from that perspective of this is a private Christian organization that is doing many things and the world is just at 100 miles an hour.

And sometimes we really aren’t going in the right direction. in many ways we aren’t. I think it’s coming back some. And I don’t want to get political. And I’m not asking you for politics. That’s not what I’m looking for. But where do you think, where do you see as an educator and as a private educator, I’m just rambling here, but where do you see it going is my question.

Kim Gorr (11:55.048)
I think something that we are very intentional about in our Catholic schools is having an opportunity for everyone to be a part of that community. We are not, you know, most of our schools have many, many students that are not Catholic. So we are very inclusive. We are welcoming to students of all faiths in our communities. And I think it is a very safe space. It is very much

family oriented, right? Families are huge partners, right? Like the parents are the first teachers, right, of their students.

Lighthouse Therapy (12:34.206)
Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. 100%.

Kim Gorr (12:36.928)
is our role to partner with parents and our Catholic schools are exceptional partners to our parents. And providing, know, one thing that we’re constantly looking for are ways to provide opportunities for all students to have the ability to attend a Catholic school if they desire. You know, we are moving in the direction that many, many states are starting to incorporate school choice, which is opening that door for families.

Lighthouse Therapy (13:04.096)
Mm-hmm, yeah.

Kim Gorr (13:06.902)
And, you know, probably one of the things that I hear a lot of as a…

as not necessarily a concern, but maybe a disconnect is we do have a lot of families choosing to homeschool and so it’s how do we either partner with those families or if they haven’t explored our Catholic schools showing that the Catholic schools are a great option for families that are looking for a change and most of our schools do provide some kind of scholarships to make that opportunity available to students. So there are a lot

Lighthouse Therapy (13:21.728)
Mm-hmm.

Lighthouse Therapy (13:40.957)
nice.

Kim Gorr (13:44.418)
of ways to, know, there are families out there that think, you know, I’d love to send my kid to the local Catholic school, but we can’t afford it. Well, I would encourage them to reach out to that school because there might be opportunities that they aren’t aware of that the school leaders would absolutely find a way to help them come to the school.

Lighthouse Therapy (14:03.416)
And I love that because that’s a message that needs to, I did not know that, honestly, I did not know that. But I never investigated it either. And we make assumptions, as human beings, make assumptions. It’s a Catholic school, so I have to be Catholic to go there. obviously clearly, that’s not the case. And that’s fantastic. And so then you have an opportunity to do something different if you want to as a parent.

Kim Gorr (14:15.374)
satellite.

Lighthouse Therapy (14:29.516)
and have a different perspective on education and what you do. And that’s really neat. That’s really neat that there’s, and there’s lots of opportunities out there for parents to do that. And I had no idea. So that’s really, I love that. And you get a chance to serve. That’s the thing about educators. We serve, we serve, right? So.

Kim Gorr (14:43.278)
Yes.

Kim Gorr (14:52.652)
And one of the greatest things when I’ve worked with teachers in my role as principal and superintendent and now in my current role, if a teacher has come from a different environment and has found their way into a Catholic school, one of the first things that they say that they really appreciate now is the ability to talk about God with their students. Have that freedom that if a student is going through a rough time to say, well, let’s pray with him or her, be able to have that

Lighthouse Therapy (15:13.915)
Mm-hmm.

Lighthouse Therapy (15:20.416)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (15:22.666)
freedom and that luxury of bringing faith into the classroom and it’s integrated through all components of the education not just in the classroom but it goes into the athletics right as a high school principal it was always amazing to me when when our teams before they would either tip off or kick off right would say a prayer right like so you have two teams in solidarity you know recognizing that yeah we’re here for to compete and we’re here to have fun but

Lighthouse Therapy (15:35.112)
Yeah. yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (15:44.382)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (15:52.506)
recognizing God first. And so that is a luxury that is not afforded unless you’re at a faith-based school.

Lighthouse Therapy (15:54.687)
Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (16:00.488)
And you know, what’s beautiful is I’m seeing that I’m seeing it in other schools. I’m seeing my son, after, this is going to get me emotional. sorry about that. goodness gracious. I, you’re seeing it on TV. You’re seeing these famous, you know, college athletes and professional athletes praying and thanking God. And it’s like, yes, yes.

Kim Gorr (16:09.422)
you

Kim Gorr (16:22.008)
Yes.

Right.

Lighthouse Therapy (16:25.584)
And my son, if I can get it out without crying, good grief. He went to a public school for, we homeschooled some, my kids went to a public school for quite a bit at the beginning. And then I homeschooled for eight years. And then they all went back to public school for different reasons, all for different reasons, but he wanted to, he wanted sports. wanted to have football. wanted to, ended up wrestling and the wrestlers, every meet would get down on their knees and pray.

And it was a public school and I love that for them. And you know, I’m a Christian, I can raise my kids that way. You know, God is such a huge part of who we are and what we do and, and all of that. And for them to recognize and to be able to do that. And I know there is it, not every, not every school can do that. But it’s, it’s beautiful to see when, when they, when it is allowed and when they do so, you know, and then just have it be a part of your culture, you know, it just becomes, because God isn’t just, it was funny. My pastor this weekend was just talking about.

Are we looking at the big picture? And he was talking about faith and, being a Christian and it is not a label that we wear sometimes, you know, it is, it needs to be. And he was like, the church is not an institution. The church is Jesus Christ and, his message and, and us as human beings. And my previous pastor was the same way. He’s like, the church isn’t the building. The church is the people that are in that building, you know? And so it’s really, that’s really neat. And I, I love that.

And I love the fact that those kids can come and be able to do that and not have to worry about it. Yeah. Yeah. Awesome. Awesome. So what would you say as an educator that is the biggest challenge for the Catholic schools right now in 2026?

Kim Gorr (18:00.782)
Exactly.

Kim Gorr (18:16.078)
We’re always wanting to make sure that families know that there is a space for them. You know, so that’s always something that we are working towards to making sure that that people are aware, right? That they are welcome and invited and that there are opportunities for them to get there. But not just that, I think, and this is a this is a problem facing all of our students today and it is the.

Lighthouse Therapy (18:17.589)
Okay.

Lighthouse Therapy (18:29.674)
Mm-hmm.

Kim Gorr (18:46.702)
prevalence of technology and social media and things that are starting to really impact so much of their lives. We’re starting to shift across the country with schools and states saying phone free zone. we’re currently doing a…

reading a book called The Anxious Generation. it’s amazing, but.

Lighthouse Therapy (19:13.312)
Good book. Yeah.

Kim Gorr (19:17.248)
It’s also sad, right? It’s scary, right? I’ve already told my sons that whenever they decide to get married and have kids, the first thing I’m getting them is this book, right? Because I want them to be aware of these things that are facing kids today and how that we as adults and as parents and as educators can combat and really help what is becoming a crisis in our country. And so the more that educators know about recognizing the signs,

of whether it’s depression or emotional problems that are a lot of it coming from their exposure to.

technology in many different facets. We just need that skill set and that ability to help our students. And not only that, to take a step further to help our parents recognize, you know, we talk a lot about these safety parameters that we put on playgrounds and on school buses, but where are those safety parameters around technology, right? And so it’s just that understanding and it’s not going away, right? Like technology asserts it’s not going

Lighthouse Therapy (20:07.616)
Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (20:21.502)
Mm-hmm.

Lighthouse Therapy (20:27.816)
No.

Kim Gorr (20:28.816)
So how do we help kids navigate the use of technology and AI and even so much as recognizing, well, is this real or is it AI, right? Like, is this right? we’re just. Right. Yeah, right. Yes, yes.

Lighthouse Therapy (20:42.528)
Yeah, it’s kind of scary now. It’s looking more and more real. The next generation iteration, you know, it used to be the hand was out of place or the shoulder looked weird or whatever. They’re not. It’s not that that’s not the case anymore. And that was like in two, what, six months they figured all of that out. Whoo. Yeah.

Kim Gorr (20:56.654)
Yeah, So that’s, I mean, that’s definitely a concern that I have. Not a concern, but it’s something to be aware of, To help our educators and parents, you know, recognize signs if there’s a problem or how to intervene and really to put some limits on some of those things. But yeah, I think that’s impacting all of us. yes.

Lighthouse Therapy (21:06.708)
Yeah, yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (21:12.64)
Mm-hmm.

Lighthouse Therapy (21:18.068)
Yeah.

Yeah, for sure, for sure. My cell phone is sitting right there. You know, I have it on mute, but it’s there. It’s there. And it tells me when I’ve used it, how much I’ve used it each week and if it’s more or less. I’m always happy when it’s less. But you know, it just is. And it’s just it’s just but it’s also a tool. But it’s not even a phone anymore. You know, it’s like that’s like the kids don’t even think of it as a phone. It’s like, yeah, it does make phone calls, doesn’t it? Computer.

Kim Gorr (21:26.094)
Yep.

Kim Gorr (21:30.318)
Yeah. Yes.

Kim Gorr (21:37.538)
Yeah.

Kim Gorr (21:46.03)
My sons don’t even have their volume on their phones. Like when I call their phones, they don’t have the volume on.

Lighthouse Therapy (21:50.08)
No, Yeah. Sorry, I was on silent. Yeah, that’s what I get. Sorry, I was silent, mom. It’s always on silent. I’ll get to it. I’ll get back to you, especially my youngest who’s in Michigan. Yeah, I’ll get back to you, mom. And it’s like, and he does. I mean, he does. He’s a good kid, but not a kid anymore. He’s going to be 24 this year. That’s my youngest. But they grow up so fast. But you just, I think you hit the nail right on the head. when you said, it’s like anything else, and I love that was,

Kim Gorr (22:03.363)
Ha

Kim Gorr (22:11.832)
to know.

Lighthouse Therapy (22:18.78)
If you use it to excess, that’s the biggest problem. And they’re there. It’s it’s, it’s addicting. We know that it can be addicting. and especially the younger you are, the easier it is to, to feel addicted to it. Like you can’t put it down. you know, even myself, I, I’ve my

I’ll turn it off or I’ll put it down and not know where it is in the house. But then the second I need something or I’m thinking about something, where’s my phone? Because I need to go look it up or go find that information or whatever. It’s like, at least I put it down. It’s not like it’s attached to my hip 24-7.

Kim Gorr (22:58.678)
Yeah, I lose mine all the time. So thank goodness I have my Apple watch and I can do the find my phone because I’m losing mine.

Lighthouse Therapy (23:06.408)
But you and I grew up in an era where there wasn’t cell phones. wasn’t, you know, it’s like I was born in 67 and you know, that was just, 58 and I’m not, you know, that was before the internet and before all of that stuff.

Kim Gorr (23:20.782)
Yeah, when I was pregnant with our first son, right, my husband had a beeper, right? Like, do you remember him? Like, yes, I remember. So no such thing as felt at that point.

Lighthouse Therapy (23:25.512)
Yeah, yeah, Pagers, remember Pagers, my gosh. There you go. Yeah, yeah, I was so impressed with my husband when I met him because he had a bag phone in his car. He had a phone in his car, that was really cool. We’ve been married 31 years, he’s still cool to me, but that’s just it. It’s just like, it’s so, and it’s so fast. I think that’s part of the problem too, is how fast it is.

Kim Gorr (23:37.87)
Yeah.

Lighthouse Therapy (23:54.792)
And how fast it’s changing. Yeah. Yeah. And how do you, how do you, how do you, how do you navigate that? I don’t know. Yeah. You get to do that. You get to get the curriculum and tell us how to do that. I asked the questions. I don’t, I don’t have to answer them, right?

Kim Gorr (23:55.072)
evolving. for sure.

Right. Yeah.

Kim Gorr (24:13.336)
have the answers yet either. So the more education we have, the more skills we have, the more tools we have, the better, but no magic pill yet.

Lighthouse Therapy (24:18.6)
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah.

No, and there’s never going to be. It’s all about self-discipline. You’ve got to discipline yourself. as long as you see the technology as a tool and not a necessity. go back to my childhood in the 70s, we didn’t have any of that. We were just fine.

See, I love those, I love the books or the movies where they apocalyptic, you know, this horrible thing happened. No more technology. It’s like, how is that an apocalypse? I’m sorry. If you can, I mean, if the pioneers made it, you know, we didn’t always hear what happened to Ann Ethel until she was dead for 10 years. know, this is like, it didn’t, when you, when you think about the grand scheme of life and where, what we’re doing, we only have today.

Kim Gorr (24:52.494)
Thanks.

Lighthouse Therapy (25:16.426)
We’re only given today. you know, use today to the best of your ability and scrolling isn’t, yeah, isn’t always the best. So, no. Okay. So I want to give you an opportunity to tell people how they can find more information about you and about what’s happening at National Catholic Education Association. Because I’m sure there are people that would love to reach out and have questions.

Kim Gorr (25:22.37)
sure. No, that’s not it.

Kim Gorr (25:46.498)
Yeah, for sure. So, you know, you can find me on LinkedIn, but definitely ncea.org is our organization’s website. A lot of great resources there, a lot of information on how to get involved. So teachers can either join with their school. We certainly invite and encourage diocese or individual schools to join, but even individuals can join as their own.

they get the opportunity to.

Enjoy these webinars that I am working to put out and moderate and read the different blog posts and really kind of have the opportunity to have, we just have so many resources available. Our goal is to make teachers’ lives and principals’ and superintendents’ lives easier and give them resources and supports and help them find answers to questions that they may have. Because again, it all trickles down to our students, right? And our goal

is to give our students the best experience with their education. yeah, so I would definitely invite people to reach out to that website and reach out to me. And I’m happy to connect them with any supports or resources they might need.

Lighthouse Therapy (27:22.328)
Okay, that sounds good. It was breaking up just a little bit, but I think we’ll be okay. I will put down, because the beautiful thing about this is 27. No, no, it would have recorded what you were saying. I just wasn’t hearing all of it. So, because it goes to your computer and then it uploads to, you know, it records locally.

on your computer and then it uploads into the web. even if you and I have a poor connection, it will continue to do what it needs to do, which is why we use Riverside. yeah. Okay. Yeah, isn’t that cool?

Kim Gorr (27:59.884)
That’s pretty cool. Yeah, I was doing there was a time I was doing a chicken podcast and I was using Riverside for that.

Lighthouse Therapy (28:09.408)
There you go. All right, well, I’m going to give us a pause so that they have a good cutting place, right? So Kim, thank you so much for giving us the information on how to get a hold of you and what you guys are doing and just your insight. Obviously, that you’re very passionate about what you do. I love that. I love that for the kids and for the Catholic schools that you’re going to impact.

And it’s just it’s just fun to talk to somebody else who also is a believer and loves what they’re doing as well. So thank you so much for coming on the show.

Kim Gorr (28:46.008)
Absolutely. Thank you for the opportunity. I’ve enjoyed it.

Lighthouse Therapy (28:50.012)
