Karen Trujillo leaves legacy of research and education in New Mexico
She helped form Educators Rising New Mexico
Adriana M. Chavez
LAS CRUCES, N.M. – Karen Trujillo was known as a brilliant researcher and passionate advocate for New Mexico students and educators.
A proud Aggie, she earned all three degrees – bachelor’s, graduate and Ph.D. – from New Mexico State University in secondary education, mathematics, and curriculum and instruction. She was also a huge Aggie sports fan, cheering proudly at men’s and women’s basketball games, among other sporting events.
But outside of her family, what was closest to her heart was education. Trujillo became superintendent of Las Cruces Public Schools in 2019, but maintained her deep connection to NMSU.
