Mr. Hardin is truly one of a kind and an incredible asset to the Klein Collins community. His classroom is a place where creativity thrives, students feel safe to be themselves, and talent is nurtured with patience and purpose. More than an outstanding art teacher, Mr. Hardin is a mentor, an encourager, and a steady source of kindness and compassion for students who need it most.
He leads with empathy and heart. Students trust him. They feel seen by him. They are inspired by him. Over the years, he has shaped countless lives, not just through art, but through the way he listens, supports, and believes in every student who walks through his door.
Klein Collins is better because of him. Our students are better because of him. We are beyond grateful for the passion, care, and excellence he brings to our KC family every single day.
Congratulations, Mr. Hardin! This honor is so well deserved! #KCFamily

I am thrilled and deeply honored to announce that I have been selected as the new Klein Collins High School Principal. I have been an educator for nearly 20 years, and I have proudly served Klein Collins since 2017 as a counselor, assistant principal, and most recently, your associate principal. I am truly honored to continue serving our amazing school community in this new leadership role and to work alongside you to ensure that our Klein Collins Tigers continue to excel.
This campus is far more than a building. It is a family. It is tradition, excellence, resilience, and heart. Klein Collins represents what is possible when students are challenged, supported, and truly known, when staff pour their passion into every classroom, and when families and community partners walk alongside us with trust and pride. Klein Collins has shaped me as a leader, and it continues to inspire me daily. This school holds a special place in my heart, and I am deeply committed to protecting what makes it exceptional while continuing to move us forward together.
I believe in collaborative leadership and look forward to working together to make our Triple A Promise of excellence in academics, arts, and athletics a reality for every student. With clear expectations, a consistent focus on continuous improvement, and our dedicated faculty and staff, we will continue building success upon Klein Collins High School’s strong foundation. Together, we will help our students reach their highest potential.
I am truly grateful for your support as we work together to develop the promise in every student as they discover their purpose. I am excited for this next chapter and for all that we will accomplish together as one Klein Collins community.
Sincerely,
Kristen Brady
Klein Collins High School Principal
