About The Teacher

I am so happy to be your fourth grade teachers this year.  I 
absolutely love to teach and I am excited to get to know each one of you.  I 
am married to a wonderful man named David.  He is a minister at a local 
church.  We have two beautiful daughters, McKenzie (10th grade) and 
Madison (4th grade), who can be seen in "Miller's Gallery" 
page.  McKenzie goes to Venice High School and Madison 
is a student here at Venice Elementary.  We also have a dog named 
Dooney.  I enjoy going to the beach, teaching both school and church school, 
and spending time with my family (in the sun especially).  I look forward to 
an exciting year filled with great learning experiences for us all!

Mission For The Class

Our class is more than just a fourth grade classroom.  We call ourselves 
a "Classroom Family" and that is just what we are.  We make decisions on 
what is best for the whole family instead of one or two members.  We love 
and respect each other for who we are, complete with our differences and 
all.  Our classroom environment is one of trust, safety, and love, and 
acceptance.  We work hard to build each other up daily by praising our 
successes and understanding our mistakes.  We are a CLASSROOM FAMILY!

Our overall theme for the year is "Acceptance and Diversity".  We will learn 
how to appreciate our similiarities and celebrate our differences.  We will 
work together for the good of our family.  When you walk through the doors 
of our class, you will leave "ME" and become "WE".  I look forward to 
guiding you in that journey this school year.  Thanks for letting me be a 
part of your life this year.
