Hi, there! Thanks for stopping by!
My name is Katie Miller, and I am currently enjoying my 11th year of teaching science at Terre Haute South! I teach Astronomy, AP Biology, and Early College Biology, and have a lot of fun with all of these courses! I look forward to getting to know each of my students throughout the year!
I’m a Terre Haute native with a B.S. in Biology, a B.S. in Science Education, and an M.S. in Biology from ISU. I enjoy reading, baking, and spending time with my family!
In addition to the courses I teach, I am also the Science Olympiad coach, TEAMS coach, sponsor for prom, and planetarium director. Please reach out to me if you have any questions!
