Dr. Bertie Kingore

Professor and Education Innovator

Born on a farm in Aberdeen, South Dakota, Bertie Kingore is the youngest of four daughters born to first-generation Americans Leslie and Lydia Wilhelm.

Bertie’s early years were spent in South Dakota before the family moved to Kansas so her father could start a car repair business when she was ten years old.

Bertie graduated from Wichita West High School in Wichita, Kansas and went on to enroll in Wichita State University where she earned her B.A.

degree in elementary education and a master’s degree in education as a reading specialist. While at Wichita State, Bertie met Richard Kingore (who impressed her with his convertible Corvette) and the couple married in 1966.

To be educated in any discipline, one must know its basic facts.

Bertie then went on to graduate from the University of North Texas in 1980 with a Ph.D. in Education.

Dr. Kingore taught in public and independent schools in Kansas and Texas and also served as an adjunct professor at the University of North Texas.
