Mrs. Abby Klocke

Hello! My name is Abby Klocke, and I am very excited to teach fifth grade at St. Luke's this year! I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa in 2021 with a degree in Elementary Education and an endorsement in reading. This is my fourth year in 5th grade at St. Luke's!

My husband, Zack, is also part of the St. Luke's community as the STEM/Technology teacher. We welcomed our sweet son, Shepherd, in April and have loved navigating life as new parents! In my free time, I love being outdoors—hiking, reading, or relaxing by the lake or pool. My family and friends are a significant part of my life, and I cherish spending time with them whenever possible. I'm excited to meet all of you and look forward to a fantastic school year!

Mrs. Claire Silliman

Hello! My name is Claire Silliman. I graduated from Ankeny High School and have been a parishioner at Our Lady’s Immaculate Heart Catholic Church for many years. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in English and a Master of Arts degree in Education from Truman State University while playing volleyball. Go Bulldogs! 

Watching my students grow and thrive in a faith-centered classroom is deeply rewarding for me. I strive to meet each student where they are at while challenging them to improve each day. 

In my free time, I continue to share my passion for volleyball as a coach at Ankeny High School. I love to spend time with friends and family (especially my niece and nephew!), read, and bake.
