All About Mrs. Miller


All About Mrs. Miller

I am excited to start my 12th year teaching. I am originally from Birmingham, Alabama where I taught 4th grade and was also an instructional technology specialist for Homewood City Schools. We moved from Lexington, KY to Atlanta in 2017 and have enjoyed being a part of the Kemp family. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Auburn University (War Eagle!) and my Master's degree from the University of Montevallo.

My husband Ryan, and I have 2 daughters, Molly (6) & Harper (9). We are big sports fans and enjoy attending Auburn University sporting events, Braves, Falcons, and Atlanta United games. We are National Park "geeks," so we love to travel and spend time outdoors. This summer we went to the Grand Tetons & Yellowstone!! It was beautiful!!

I am honored to be your child's teacher and value the impact a teacher can have on their students. I promise to encourage & inspire each and every one of my students to be lifelong learners. I will hold students accountable for their work, challenge them to be active participants in my class and encourage them to take ownership of their own education.  I am looking forward to a great year ahead!
